Fuel Sender Ohms

I would check resistance from tank to one sender wire then the tank to the other sender wire .

Then both sender wires.

Could be a bad sender?

I assume you have the sender out of the tank.

Take some photos of it and some close ups of the rheostat

Yes, sender out of tank. I had a new factory tank in with a newer sender and had been test driving, the fuel gauge worked perfectly. With all the suspension mods ive done, a leaf spring put a hole in the gas tank which got me back to my original plan of a fuel cell in the trunk. key was on. Remember, after this failed test I hooked up the old sender and watched the gauge move .

This new tank has some bad reviews on the fill cap plastic, I'll bet this sender is junk too.
