I just hooked up the Chev sending unit to my meter and it's showing 0-ohm at empty and 31-ohm at full. I then tried it hooked to the car and the gauge didn't budge at all. Next, I grounded the gauge wire to the chassis and the needle quickly swept from Empty to Full. So I guess that this unit isn't sending enough resistance to move the gauge?? Is it obvious I've never studied electrical engineering?


I'm a complete Moron!!

I didn't ground the sending unit before testing it. Now at Empty the gauge reads Full. And at Full, the gauge reads a little less than half tank.
