Which is the most common universal fuel sender?

Autometer – 240-33 Ohms is the most common however other ohm ranges are made Classic Instruments – 240-33 Ohms (excluding vehicle specific gauge kits which use factory ohm range) Dolphin – 0-90 Ohms Dakota Digital – Programmable to work with most Ohm range senders

What is resistance to ground on universal fuel sender?

When the fuel sender is in the full position the rheostat is creating 90 ohms of resistance to ground. Because the gauge is reading a resistance to ground having proper grounding of the sending unit is essential to get an accurate reading on your fuel gauge.

What to do if your fuel sender reads backwards?

The first step would be to make sure that you have the proper ohm range fuel sender to match your gauges. For example a 73-10 ohm fuel sender would read backwards on a 0-90 ohm fuel gauge. If you find you have the correct ohm range fuel sender make sure that the float arm is installed on the correct side.

What should resistance of universal fuel sender be?

The resistance of your fuel sender should match that of your gauge. For instance the resistance of the stock gauge in a 55 Chevy has a value of zero ohms when empty and 30 ohms when full. The following list is for stock gauges and some popular aftermarket brands:

The first step would be to make sure that you have the proper ohm range fuel sender to match your gauges. For example a 73-10 ohm fuel sender would read backwards on a 0-90 ohm fuel gauge. If you find you have the correct ohm range fuel sender make sure that the float arm is installed on the correct side.
