My fuel gauge is stuck on full even though I emptied the tank for the winter. Its been like this most of the summer so I just monitor my mileage. I disconnected and removed the speedometer head and its still pegged to full. Would anyone have any suggestions? I looked it up in the manual on how to test the gauge but I dont have a rheostat.
Also. Is there anyway to adjust the low fuel light as my low fuel light comes on and I still have 2-1/2 gallons of gas left.
Thanks
I was able to disassemble the the speedometer gauge package. The needle of the fuel gauge seems to have some resistance when i gently move it with my finger. Not sure if thats normal. I would think it would move more freely.
I looked up the price of a replacement instrument head and Yikes!!! Is there a source where I can just purchase the fuel pod?
Thanks

The sensor for the low fuel light is mounted on the frame of the fuel pump module. There is no adjustment. There should be a small amount of resistance to needle movement to dampen the readings. As far as checking it out goes, you will need a multi-meter to check the tank sensor. You can substitute an instrument cluster from a Nomad with injection, you will just have a black speedo face.
Thanks Troll !!!!
