gas gauge

[rionthered]

my gas gauge is not working any ideas?

this is no help, but just wanted to say the same thing happened to me on my 92...never got fixed

Could be a cracked float, causing it to fill with gas and sink.

Read about it here:

Disconnect the plug at the tank

The gauge should go to full when power is applied. Sensor is 15 ohms empty and 170 ohms full. So, unless the sensor is shorted (highly unlikely) the problem is the float full of gas. If you have a meter, measure the resistance. The sensor will be the two smaller wires in the connector.

thanks for the help sounds like a pain to fix
