[Chrysler300] 1962 - Fuel Gauge Dilemma

["Matt Allyn allynentertainment@xxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300]" <Chrysler300-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Seeking any thoughts on why my fuel gauge won't work.

The Facts:

- 1962 300 Sport

- Astradome fully restored probably 25 years ago

- Car has sat for last 8-10 years

- Pulled tank to clean it out & discovered the sending unit pipe IN was separated from its sending unit housing, so...

- New Vans Auto Sending Unit installed a month or so go

- There is approximately 6 gallons in the tank

The Diagnostics:

- Test Light illuminates at Sending Unit; so there is power to the wire

- Test Light illuminates at power wire feed to gauge as well

- Sending Unit has Ohm reading at Sending Unit

- Fuel Gauge has Ohm reading as well

- Running an external jumper wire from the body of the Sending Unit to ground; had no effect on the gauge

- Grounding the Power Wire to the Sending Unit did NOT make the fuel gauge jump to FULL

Any other thoughts?

I cannot get a reading at the gauge that worked perfectly 8-10 years ago

Thanks!
