Gas Gauge problem
Hi - new here! I bought a 79 and have started to restore it. I will post some pics in the future. Replaced the clock and that works great. Now the gas gauge! I've read the some other posts and here is what I've checked:
The gauge pegs to 3:00. Checked and cleaned the ground on the sender/frame. Ran a ground from the sender to the gauge.
Checked the resistor on the gauge - 30.8 ohms, the resistor on the temp gauge is 39.1 ohms.
I get 4.2 m ohms from the sender to ground.
The sender to ground reads 10.4 volts.
One side of the gauge reads 14.8 volts to ground, the other side 10.4 volts.
What should I check/replace?
Thanks
