I can't get one of my SW fuel senders to work while it's in the tank. The right sender works fine. The left sender resistance does not change when I add fuel.
The sender works fine when I pull it out of the tank and hook it up to my guage. I pulled it out once and re-installed it. I checked the float arm measurements per the plans (3.25" on the long arms). It appears to be oriented correctly. The float is facing forward. I have a good ground with a wire connected directly to the sender plate.
After I re-installed it, I had the exact same problem - no change in resistance with 13 gallons in the tank. I've now pulled it a second time (and yes, I did use proseal both times) re-checked everything again and can not figure out what's wrong.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
