I had the same problem when I mixed a later type fuel sender (post '67 I
believe), with an earlier gauge.
The earl sender produces a resistance of approximately 100 ohms when full,
10 when empty. The later type produces about 15 when full and 260 when
empty. The result was that the gauge showed VERY full when the tank was
empty, and empty when it was actually full. Fitting the original type
sender fixed the problem.

|the guage reads full when empty, empty when full.

|I've searched the archives, haven't been able to find solution.
