In Response To: Re: Fuel Gage (bruce)

I have a wacky gauge issue as well.

Last year, when I repowered, I installed a new Isspro gauge and sender. It worked beautifully. Until I transferred the fuel from my saddle tanks into the main. When I did that, the gauge drained down to empty (indicated, anyway) and I was a bit nervous.

There are no pickups on the input for the returns from the engine or the input from the pump. I know that the fuel left the saddles and went into the main tank, as I would have run out of fuel had it not, and I didn't.

Why in heck would the gauge be working "backwards"? I drove the boat to Block Island and spent a good weekend there, came back, and decided to empty the saddles.

now I have a half tank. Can't be.

Why it be doin' that?????
