[C320-list] Fuel Gauge

[Tony Kalish]

Thanks for the info.  Following the checklist from the 320 list, I checked
the gauge, wiring and sensor--the sensor seems to be the culprit.  My old
sensor is not one made by WEMA so I did a lot of investigation to find the
correct size to order.

Hopefully I'll get the new sensor in and wired up soon to see if everything
is back to full functioning.

Thought it would be helpful to share this email I received from WEMA (the  
fuel gauge distributor);
 
 
Dear  Mr. Baird: 
Thank  you for your inquiry.  Before you determine it is the fuel sender 
and order  one and find out it's possibly a gauge, I recommend you go to: 
_http://www.wemausa.com/_ (http://www.wemausa.com/)  and look at the
trouble 
shooting guide under the "Specs" tab.  WEMA USA charges a 20%  restocking
fee 
if you need to return it due to ordering wrong.    
The  steps are easy and are a great deal helpful determining if it's the 
sender,  gauge or wiring in between.  If it is the sender and it's a WEMA
you 
are  replacing you can get the part number you need off the wirecap on top 
of the  sender.   If you can't see a part number, you will need to know how 
it  mounts, the length and the ohms as we don't cross reference.  I look  
forward to hearing back from you  soon.
