Fuel Gauge Tank Unit Removal : l Remove Fuel Tank assembly. Fig. 11 l Release clip & disconnect fuel feed hose. l Release clip & disconnect fuel return hose. l Remove electrical connections. l Remove 6 nuts securing Float Unit from the fuel tank. l Remove seal from the Float Unit. Fitment : Please follow reverse procedure Testing / Checking : Fig. 12 The sender is a float operated rotary potentiometer which provides a variable resistance to ground for the output from the gauge. When the sender float is at its lowest point, indicating an empty fuel tank, the resistance to earth is at its lowest. The resistance is sensed by the gauge which positions the needle accordingly. Use ohm-meter to confirm that the resistance of the fuel level sensor (Fuel Tank Unit) changes with the level of float position.
