    Fuel gauge wire location?

    The fuel gauge on my car is having issues. It will read currectly for a while and then the needle will just drop to zero. I think its a grounding/wire issue, but I'm not seeing where the wire is coming out of the tank. Can someone guide me on where to look?

    Thanks!

    Ground for the sender is the black wire in the 3 wire plug connected from the main harness to logic box pigtail.
    The gauge gets its ground separately from the instrument panel's printed circuit.

    I heard the sender units, on the new pump have issues.... Mine does... Also I see you in line check valve... Did it come with your pump, I did not get one, but put in a Plastic, and would like to use a metal one... If you got it. where did you find it...

    Thanks!

    My fuel system was gone through before I got it by DMC Midwest, so my guess is the gang there can help you out.

    I have extras of these - would be happy to sell one for less than what DMCH charges. PM if interested!
