Hi, I have a 1969 Beetle that is having fuel gauge problems. It seems that both the gauge and the sending unit burnt out. I've replaced both of them and the fuel gauge now registers, however it registers full until the tank is almost empty. The replacement gauge was manufactured by VDO (fits inside the speedo), however I'm not sure who made the sending unit. I was going to check the ohm range of the sending unit but after doing research on the net, it seems that it can vary - some posts say it should be 73-10 others say 180 -10. Can anybody point me in the correct direction on how I can resolve the problem? If the guage needs the lower value and I have a sending unit that generates the higher ohmage, can I put a resitor in parallel with it?
Thanks in advance areyouwireless = = = = = = = = = =
