Re: FILL TO THE TOP sj413
Hi Jim,
I had the same problem with my Sj after I had taken the tank out to inspect it for a fueling issue. It would be all over the place most of the time and occasionally read what I thought was correct, so I dropped the tank again, had a wiggle of the wire and some WD but still nothing.
The cure for me in the end was an earth strap from the tank to the body, instant success. I got my mate to touch the new earth strap on and off the body and the fuel gauge would rise and fall.
If you have a bit of wire kicking about it might be worth a try.
