I am looking a new 65-67 Mustang gas tank to put under the bed, what sending unit could I use so that my stock guage still worked correctly? Anybody done this?


If you need a tool and don't buy it, you will find you have paid for it and don't have it.

All depends on the resistance of the sender unit. I think later model GM sender units used a 0-30 ohm sender unit. Mismatched sender/gauge units will give you a valid empty tank reading (0 ohms) but full may be a different story. You could probably live with a gauge that reads 3/4 full when the tank is actually full.

I agree the gauge and sender need to be matched. Early Chevy 0-30 ohms to 64, late chevy 65 and up 0-90 ohms. But early **** is 73-10 ohms.

This is an electrical question so I'm transferring it over to the electrical bay.
