  2. Also check that the resistance changes smoothly when the float is moved from "E" to "F".
    Position Liter (l  ) U.S. gal. Resistance (Ω)
    E 6.5 1.71 184 ± 2 Ω
    Warning lamp ON 8.5 2.23 170 ± 2 Ω
    1/2 28.8 7.6 66 ± 2 Ω
    F 50 13.2 15 ± 2 Ω
  3. If the height resistance is unsatisfied, replace the fuel sender as an assembly.
    CAUTION: After completing this test, wipe the sender dry and reinstall it in the fuel tank.
