Questions: When I hook up the power and sensor wire to this gauge, it works properly. When I hook up the ground, the gauge goes to empty.
Why doesn’t this work right without the ground?

Questions: The fuel gage I purchased from you didn’t have install directions. If I al looking st the back of the gage the top left terminal has a B above it. The right term has a T above it. At the bottom there is a screw with 3 lines below it, then a terminal and another screw to the right and it says 12v. My old gage had only 2 terminals. 1 went to sending unit and the other to the positive of the ignition. Can you tell me what needs to be hooked up where?

Questions: I have (6hole) sending unit 914850 and this gauge 640763-12v. The sending unit looks fine going from 10 ohms full to 74 ohms empty. When I move the sending unit arm from full to empty, the gauge only moves from 3/4 to 1/2 (not enough motion). I can turn the screw in the back of the gauge to get the needle to move up or down but the range of motion under full range sender motion does not change. Is there another screw on the gauge that would increase its gain? I noticed that the 5 screw sending unit goes from 8 ohms to 135 ohms empty. That would probably make the needle move more. Any idea how to make this work? Thanks.
Question By: Richard Horth on Mar 8 2020 8:58 PM
The back of the gauge in the dash is a bit adjustable on the ohms. If you can email mike@kaiserwillys.com to help out.
