Title: Fuel sender and aftermarket gauge
Post by: Soul on May 04, 2012, 08:47:20 AM
Ok I think I've asked this before but I can't find it and I apologize if so.

Any one know the output of the fuel level sender for 88 TC, and is there an aftermarket gauge that will  hook up and read correctly? Without a new sender.

According to the 88 EVTM, the manual gauge vehicles fuel sending unit readings would be, (60-86 ohms is empty and 8-12 ohms is full). I did some looking on the Summit Racing website and found several different types of gauges, this is one of them by Auto Meter(ATM-4315) its a 2 1/16 diameter gauge. 73 ohms reads empty and 8-12 ohms is full.
