I just bought a new fuel sending unit for my '65 C-10, and I ran into a problem.
For years the wire has been off the inop fuel sender in my truck, and now and then the wire would touch ground and the guage would show full, flutter around and then go back down when the wire broke contact..
I went to install the new unit and the guage now goes from under empty to the empty line and stays there solidly when grounded.
When I lightly brush the contact against a ground it goes all the way over smoothly and then comes back down smoothly.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Mike
