I had a fuel gauge issue ages ago and it turned out to be the clocks, put another set in and it just worked. Just wanted to let you know it was a problem I had had in case you hadn't thought about it ________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |

Anyone know the specs for the voltage on the fuel level sensor wire? You could check that with a multimeter at the clocks? |
