I've went through two gauges and as many sending units in my Willys and can't get that fricken thing to work. The worst is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't with no rhyme nor reason. I even ran jumper wires to see if the wiring was faulty. I just finally gave up, at least until it's warmer again.

I was wondering about the sending unit in them, I can never seem to get fuel guages to read correctly after you go to the aftermarket. It gets a little frustrating.

Just so you know I wasn't trying to ruin your thread...LOL, I do have a Tanks INC tank for my Camaro but I haven't installed it yet. It looks like a real quality unit though; especially for the price. I think I ordered it from MCB here on the forum and I bought it with a Walbro and the sending unit along with some new straps. I can't wait to see how it works, but that will be down the road a bit.
