[Chevelle-list] fuel gauge part 2
fuel gauge reads full all the time. i took off the ground cleaned and reattached, still had problem, grouned it to a diffrent location with a jumper wire and still had problem,,, grounded the sender wire then it went to empty--- so i figured the problem was with the float/sender, so i took down my tank and rechecked it and now it is working--- wondering what the list suggests? should i get a new float/sender package and install it? is my problem likely to reoccur? or ??? (are the aftermarket parts any good?) thanks for the help! Harlan ** Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars. (http://autos.aol.com/used?ncid=aolaut000507)
Re: [Chevelle-list] fuel gauge part 2
I think I read in an earlier response that the locking ring plays a part in grounding. Maybe removing and reinstalling cleaned that connection.Godspeed, Dan SolomonIt is a mistake to allow any mechanical object to realize you are in a hurry.http://www.freewebs.com/chevelles1970/ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Wed, 18 Jun 2008 04:10:33 -0400To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [Chevelle-list] fuel gauge part 2fuel gauge reads full all the time.i took off the ground cleaned and reattached, still had problem, grouned it to a diffrent location with a jumper wire and still had problem,,, grounded the sender wire then it went to empty--- so i figured the problem was with the float/sender, so i took down my tank and rechecked it and now it is working--- wondering what the list suggests? should i get a new float/sender package and install it? is my problem likely to reoccur? or ???

Re: [Chevelle-list] Herb is in the new Chevelle Magazine
I picked up mine at Wal-Mart as well. I already passed my copy on to a buddy so I cant offer any help on the publisher. I also noticed an error. In one of the feature articles the photo in the lower right corner of the page was from a different car. Not even the same model. If I remember correctly it was an article on a 70 with a picture from a 68-69. Still a really nice magazine. They should publish it more often.Godspeed, Dan SolomonIt is a mistake to allow any mechanical object to realize you are in a hurry.http://www.freewebs.com/chevelles1970/ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Tue, 17 Jun 2008 22:15:07 -0500Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Herb is in the new Chevelle Magazine Got my copy at Wal-Mart. I’ll scan the cover and email it to you off-list. Publisher is Source Interlink Media but you have to look on the inside to find that data and wouldn’t help much trying to find it on the shelf. Cover shot has a charcoal over green 67 and a yellow 71 convertible. Like most magazines, the staff writers aren’t too bright sometimes and proofreaders must be nonexistent. When discussing the yellow 71 SS454 convertible they state, “Chevrolet built just 5,089 LS5 SS454 Chevelle two-door convertibles in 1971.” Uh, no – there were 5,089 Malibu convertibles built and there are no real numbers on how many, of any model, were LS5 optioned. There were only 9,502 LS5 options sold in 71 and I’d make it safe bet that over half didn’t go into convertibles. Same car; “The RPO Z15 Super sport package cost $357 and was offered on Chevelle and Malibu models…” Uh, no – the Chevelle model didn’t come in a convertible configuration and RPO Z15 was limited to Malibu sport coupes, convertibles, and sedan pickups. FWIW, Keith Anderson’s 70 SS Elky is in the same issue, facing page to Herb’s.

Re: [Chevelle-list] fuel gauge part 2
Check the area around the sender. Look at the 'locking ring' that holds it on. Where the wire attaches. Mine needed to be cleaned and now works great.

Re: [Chevelle-list] fuel gauge part 2
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!With electrical circuits cleaning reseating connections often will clear up problems, never to return. If it does return then consider changing the sending unit.
