First I changed the sending unit. Then I changed the entire right side of the cluster(fuel and oil). Still this dang' thing shoots straight for E when I turn to ignition and run the engine. I put $20 of petro to try and shake it up a bit and nothing. Previously I was made aware of a 'resistor', exactly where is this located. Instead of changing parts, I might be changing my entire car. [Confused]

Man, what does this thing look like, so I can get the part, swap it out, and see if it works? [burnout]

It's either the anti-slosh module or the IVR. Whatever it's called, change it out! [patriot]
