Fuel gauge sender

[niagra]

Hi,

The previous owner of my Fulvia replaced the original fuel tank with an aluminium one as the old one was shot. It's a lovely piece of workmanship and there is an invoice for over £200 for it! However, it must be a slightly different shape as the gauge reads 3/4 when full and 1/4 when empty. Is there any way of recalibrating the sender?

Also, the gauge sways quite a lot when cornering and going up and down gradients. The tank has been baffled so is it just a "feature" I need to get used to?

Thanks,
Dario

Put a variable resistor into the circuit and calibrate it as required. Then reas the resistance setting and buy a small resistor to replace the variable one!

enjoy!
