Listers,
I have finally got the wiring on my TR-3A complete. When I turned the key
to the 'on' position, the fuel gauge immediately showed 1/4 full - the tank
is absolutely empty. I have measured resistance at the sender, and have
about 1 ohm at empty (float all the way down) and about 82 ohms at full
(float all the way up). It appears the sender is OK. When I short the
sending wire (green/black) to ground, the gauge immediately goes to 1/4
full, and stays there. I suspect the gauge to be bad. Is there a local
shop that can repair a TR fuel gauge? Or, has anyone disassembled a TR3
fuel gauge and successfully repaired it?
As always, I welcome and appreciate your collective knowledge, wisdom, and
experience.
Thanks, Dennis
