Fuel gauges whacked

Tim

Your gauges probably similar to mine.

"The technology that got man to the moon"
Scary, right?

The mains have two senders, and each aux has one sender.

They are all low resistance, so anything less than perfect contact and they jump.

Every few years I take mine out
and clean the wiper contacts w a touch of copper cleaner.
Good 'as new'

I have also found a way to modify custom orderable commercially available senders
that I have been thinking of trying.

Despite the allusion above, these are NOT rocket science.

MUCH better ways these days to get same measurements,
that will feed the same gauges but accurately and reliably.

Let's chat when you're bored.

Other option is/was Lockhaven airparts could/can overhaul each sender
(for around $200 ea?) if not smoked.

AND OF COURSE
On any trip of any length I always top off (plenty of payload available)
And rely on Shadin for the rest.
