I have a VDO electric fuel gauge in my 59 Apache, It was working fine when it went to the body shop, but since it has come back the guage needle goes all the way to the right when i fire up the truck. The guys at the body shop had to diconnect it from the sender to move the bed back. It is hooked back up right but it still goes pinned right. Is it the sender unit or the gauge? :confused:

How's your ground wire connection from the sender unit hold down screw to the frame? Did they reconnect that wire?

Yes, what chevy-1 said,,,, did you get the wire reconnected from the ground screw(holding the sender in the tank) to the frame for grounding?


There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.
