Fuel Gauge

  1. Unplug fuel gauge sender at rear body connector and connect Tester (J-33431) between sender wire and ground. Turn ignition on. If gauge responds to tester accurately, check wiring to sender. If wiring is okay, replace sender.
  2. If gauge does not read empty at 0 ohms and full with 90 ohms from tester or is inaccurate in other ways, check connections on rear of gauge and loose wiring connections. If connections are okay, replace gauge. If gauge does not respond to tester at all, check wiring between tester and gauge for continuity, If wiring is okay, replace gauge.
