Good video my friend I’ll remember this when I install fuel sending unit thanks
makes sense on paper, but, after the visual you provided, even more clear!
much appreciated brotha E.. thanks
I just subscribed the reason I subscribed is because your not long winded you get to the point and that’s the kind of advice I’m looking for and I value you talked just enough to show personality without annoyance if I knew where you were I would send you some batteries for your clock keep them coming
Thank you
much appreciated brotha Rene.. lol thanks
Nice view brother keep them coming
Excellent video! I believe this is probably the main reason most of us are having issues with these after market pumps. It actually makes a lot of sense because the flat arm angle is so flimsy I doubt if they are keeping the tolerances in production. Thanks for doing this video 👌🏽
thanks..appreciate it..
My 73 ford needs this done. Reading waaaay over the full line after installing new tank and sending unit. 👍
hope it helps.. keep me posted..

That camaro another project of yours!? And again well explained video!
You know it! brotha PF
Great video as usual brother man! You can also adjust fuel sending unit in the tune as well. Just an fyi
in some applications.. you're right..
Great video as always, bud!! I’m working on a LSA blower on my LS3 and need to change my in tank regulator to Aeromotive boost reference regulator at the rail as a return. Do you T off the feed line or use the rail test port? Any difference?
im using the stock rails.. i run the return from the regulator
coverman66 great, that makes sense!
Very helpful video. Thank you for sharing. By the way anyone ever tell you that you look like Muhammad Ali?? Lol
i get it all the time.. thanks..
while im driving my gauge will go down a few ticks and go back up to where it was before (i thought i was going crazy at first but it’s definitely moving up and down), will this fix that or is it a different problem?
Thanks a lot, my tank is on full and it keeps saying half so I guess I should bend it downwards
Oh man I wish I would have seen this video before, I replaced the sending unti on my toyota pick up with an original oem part and the freaking thing dials 1/4 while empty.
I need your help desperately. I have a 1998 honda crv. Lately the low fuel light stopped working. However my gauge works fine and my pump works fine. Because my cars pump and fuel sending unit is together in one assembly the mechanics tell me to replace the entire assembly. Problem is we can not find one anymore. Can this low fuel light be fixed without a new assembly?
If i leave it the way it is will the non working fuel light make my pump go bad ?
How are you liking the pump? I'm debating on getting the dual 340 for my sierra.
love it.. looking to do it again o my next build..
my manual calls for 3ohms full/80ohms empty the replacement unit I received reads 6.5omhs full/82.5 empty will that cause an issue ?
Hey Terry,
Your tank appears to be level when out of the vehicle but is it level when in the vehicle and fully resting on its suspension?
no my truck has a rake to it..
Hello bro ,
I have same issues with sending unit dakota digital sw 33 - installed onto chevy caprice 1990 OE - while testing out the tank its great but when install it inside its slow reading and not correctly read - any recommendations ?
Even that I adjust fuel level many times with measurement the distance and deep.
i would give DD a call.. it could be anything from the sending unit to the not sitting properly in the tank..
My 2004 Nissan Frontier recently started showing 3/4 full at a full tank fill. I have had this truck since new and I have never messed with it. I assume I just need to replace the pump due to age?
does the Nissan have everything in contained in the bucket?
My Chevy Colorado the sending unit wears out all the time.
wow.. i wonder why?
2007 6.2 Yukon Denali put 340 pump in But gauge stay right around full will not move...plzz help what I need to do.
did you test it before putting the tank back in? the float might be stuck on something.. is the tank back in the truck?
My gauge goes up and down with acceleration and deceleration. Why does it do that? How to fix it? What stops the float from moving up and down with the gas as the vehicle accelerates and decelerates? Thanks for all and any help.
a baffle.. what type of tank are you running? a aftermarket?
My fuel gauge literally works backwards. Low fuel might covers on when I full up and it runs out when it hits full. How do I reverse that. The is no video anywhere or no mention by anyone on CZcams.
K is this a stock sending unit? it could be the wires are crossed. i would get another sending unit and test it outside the tank to see if it read accurate.. keep me posted..
I think this would happen of you put the wire in from the opposite side. Unscrew it and put it in the other way and see what happens.
I filled my tank all the way up two days ago, it's still on full ain't moved wtf
Ohhhh come on!!!!!
iam going to try that my tank can be full and my gauge won't go haft full
some time you have to bend the rod until it reads correct.
It's too bad they don't make a stock fuel tank with a drain on the bottom!
thats would make it easy for people to steal gas i guess.. great idea.. lolol
@@Coverman66 That depends on how low you car is. It's better than having them cut a fuel line.
just put another sender in
when you have a custom build you have to sometimes modify the rod for it to read accurate.
