Gas gauge
Hi.
How much resistanse shall i have in the black/pink wire to the gasgauge.
There is a resistor on the wire.
Its a 64 327.
Best regards Fredrik

None. There is no resistance in the 12V feed circuit to the gauge "I" terminal; the gauge requires 12 volts to work properly. That same circuit also powers the temperature gauge.

I found a resistor on a black pink wire that runs from the dash to the rear of the car.

Putting a low current from the tank cabels to the gauge just to see if the cabels and the gauge is ok?

Do a resistance test on the wires from the gauge to the sender. The sender operates at full sweep from 0 to 90 ohms. Disconnect the level wire and it will go past full, ground it and it pegs on empty.
