Dr. Moribus & Cli55er,
First off, I am pretty sure the smaller Junior tanks did not have baffles in them to begin with. If I'm wrong, someone will certainly jump in and correct me, but I think it was jus the big tanks for the senior cars that were baffled. AND, the sender unit I purchased from KM Lifestyles, has a very definite damper built in to the float arm, that, IMO, would counter 'slosh-readings', no problem. I believe the erratic gauge reporting is electrical and pretty much has to be either the sender unit or the gauge. I have run a new wire from tank to gauge and clarified a good ground, so there isn't a lot left. In as much as these systems run on ohms, I suspect there is some sort of incompatibility between the S.U. and the gauge. Just MY opinion, though. Chris.
