Production As Of September, 1988

  1. Connect ohmmeter between terminal "G" and terminal No. 31 on fuel gauge sender. See Figure . Resistance should be 2 +/- 1 ohms with float at "FULL" position and 76 +/- 1 ohms with float at "EMPTY" position. The higher the fuel level, the lower resistance will be.
  2. Connect ohmmeter across terminal "W" and terminal No. 31. Continuity should exist only if tank is empty (low fuel warning contacts). If sending unit is functional and wire harness is good, replace fuel gauge.
