Q: null I am working on a new construction using a reed type Mueller Fuel Gauge. All of the wiring diagrams that I have found show a five wire connection to the fuel gauge. My new gauge from Mueller only has four connections. The existing wire diagrams show two wires attaching to the light bulb connections whereas my gauge only has a spade for one wire. Does a ground or power wire attach to the single spade next to the light bulb?
5 years ago1 Answer
A: Only one ground wire attaches to the gauge, and the terminal should be labeled as such. There are two hot leads, one for the bulb and one for the gauge (usually supplied from the ingnition switch so gauge activates when engine is started). There is one terminal for the wire from the sending unit. The hot lead for the bulb can be connected to the ignition switch so it is always on when the engine is running or to an independent switch so the light can be on only when needed. Here's a link to a four wire diagram: https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/userportal/pdfs/howtos/Gauge_Sending_Unit_Wiring_Diagram.pdf

Q: null If i have a ""4""-5"" neck on top of the fuel tank which the sending unit can mount to, can i calibrate the gauge to disregard the neck length and only measure the tank?
6 years ago2 Answers
A: Unfortunately these can not really be calibrated. You would have to adjust the value of the resistance in the sender or adjust it, and it just seems like a little more work than it may be worth.

Q: null My tank is 10-3/4"" deep, which gauge should I get?
8 years ago1 Answer
A: I would go with the 8"" gauge length, that way you know it will fit and when it shows empty you will still have an inch or so of fuel.
