Custom fuel sender

Hi all,

I guess this goes in here!

Since finishing my car I've lived with a fuel gauge that doesn't work right! With the tank full it reads less than empty and with it full it reads quarter full.

I want to get this sorted out so I can enjoy driving it, and not worrying about running out of fuel.

The sender is a dip tube type as the tank is baffled internally. Does anyone know where I can get a dip tube sender to match a Greengauges fuel gauge? I'm sure I asked this before, and got an answer but I can't find the details

Cheers,

G

Sounds like it goes out of range of the sender, i.e when its full theres so much reisistance there's not enough power left to raise the needle on the guage.

Does it work if you lift it in and out of the tank while watching the guage?
