Replacing stock fuel gauge

Recommended Posts

Im looking at replacing all my stock gauges in my 71 sbc powered Z. Will be going mechanical for oil and temp gauges. With the fuel gauge are there any tricks to get it set up. I heard they are a pain and do not set up correctly,something about needing new sending unit?

IF you use a fuel level gage for an older Ford you can get it to work with the Datsun Sender.(The older Ford Sending units are 73 ohms Empty and 8-12 ohms Full, very close to the Datsun)

 

I have a page that describes getting it to read correctly at Empty and Full:
