Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Taking fuel gauge out.

[Michel Savard (mysavard]



The only reason I think it's the gauge is because in may 2013 my mechanic changed the whole system inside (long stick) and on top of the tank. So, everything is brand new.

I had bought the car in 2001 with a faulty reading. I mean the gauge (on dashboard) would go to FULL when I filled it up and then after not even 100 km, it would go to EMPTY. I drove like this for many many years. Finally, on may 2013, I bought the whole system (LEVEL GAUGE CONTROL for 62 pounds from Eurospares) and my mechanic put it on.

 

Many of you seem to think it can't be the dashboard gauge. The battery is out for winter. Can't do any testing with ignition on.  I guess I'll have to wait for spring.

Are you talking about taking the gauge out of the console or the sender out of the tank?

1981 308 GTSi: As I told the list last summer, my fuel gauge is non-functional. It goes up to FULL when I fill up the tank. But stops at about 1/4 empty and then it does not move anymore. That's how I got stuck with no fuel in the car last august.So, as a winter project, I would like to take it out of the dashboard for repair.

How do I do it ?
