Cars an 88 Monte carlo SS. Untill now the gauge did nothing, i checked the power lead in the cluster for the gauge and got nothing. However the ground was good, and i had continuity between the tank and gauge so i know that wiring harness is in good shape.
So too narrow things down i pulled the gauge and wired power/ground straight from the fuse panel/frame (temporary just for testing) and a temp lead from gauge to sending unit.
The gauge powers on and reads above fuel all the time, i have a spare fuel gauge i tried and same results so i know it's not the gauge.
I tested the ground between TANK and frame and got NO continuity. I'm pretty sure this is my problem, if i fix this ground and STILL have the same problem, is my sending unit bad??
Trying to make this quick because i don't have internet access at my house, i have to drive 30 miles to use internet.
