Title: fuel sender resistances Post by: Black_65 on February 05, 2013, 23:17:06 pm Hi guy's,
I want to order a 'autometer' fuel gauge to complete the load out on my 1965 beetle. Now they sell 4 different gauges to use but i have no idea what the OHMS resistance on a vw sender... Has anyone tested there's to see what OHMS resistance is and what autometer fuel gauge did you buy? Any help on this would really help, Clarke Title: Re: fuel sender resistances Post by: bugnut68 on February 05, 2013, 23:30:13 pm The Autometer gauge doesn't use a dedicated sender of the same brand? I figured that would be the case for any aftermarket/non-OEM fuel gauge set-up, but I'm out of the loop on this one. I know I'm struggling to get my stock gauge to work properly in my '70 Beetle, and I've replaced every part imaginable. I can only figure that maybe the sending unit is defective at this point.

Found this Googling, and it's actually pretty clear and concise. Good write up. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=380693 Title: Re: fuel sender resistances Post by: Black_65 on February 06, 2013, 14:06:06 pm 73 Ohm - 10 Ohm.
