Author Topic: fuel gauge need removal & reinstall ques. gercolla1 ¯ Member # 3068 posted                                 I have to change the resistor behind my fuel gauge. The gauge always reads red empty. Eventually I will have to remove the needle pointer to do the job. When I replace the needle,how do I position/point it now? There is no dowel or notch in either the pin or needle. This needle can be positioned anywhere! How do I establish some type of base-line setting? -------------------- Sf Bay Area Posts: 2171 | From: Sampan San Francisco | Registered: Jul 2003  |  : 166 Merlo FELONY MOTORSPORTS Member # 1549 posted                              do it on a full tank and put it where you want it to be at a full tank. -------------------- '89 - Boss Coupe '70 - Drop Cutthang '68 - Cougnut '87 - 0166, Its real Posts: 3953 | From: Thebay | Registered: Jul 2002  |  : gercolla1 ¯ Member # 3068 posted                                 Ya know, I was thinking just that but the opposite, an empty tank. I reason that an empty tank is something to keep a closer eye on. But, that means I have to run the car completely out of gas first. -------------------- Sf Bay Area Posts: 2171 | From: Sampan San Francisco | Registered: Jul 2003  |  :
