    Bob,

    No worries. It appears Greg is interested in the last one you have currently available.

    The next couple of weeks would be the time for me to do it, as I am working towards putting the deck back on.

    George, I'll donate my place in line as I am not anywhere close to where you are. My situation also has hair associated with it due to the dual level tank I have.

    BTW. I am ordering more soon, so number on-hand is not a concern.
    The manufacturer will make as many as I want.

    Was George looking for a sender?

    Greg,

    I finished your tank calcs. Actually, they were done some time ago and I just never got back to them to double check my figures.

    From my calcs, you have 59.45g. tank. This is derived from the drawing that you sent me. Although, that drawing said 51g. at the top. This is also, not corrected for the volume of alum used for the tank. I use the OD's.

    Attached is an illustration of the error that a float sender or even a non-corrected centroid would give you with that tank. Due to the odd shape of the tank, a float sender would be accurate at 3 points, instead of the normal 2. The flat line would be a corrected sender.

    Now, obviously, this is a one-off. So, it is a bit more expensive. I will PM you a quote.

    Dave,

    Will ship next day after payment. I have one on hand and am ordering some more this week.

    Any chance you can get a look at the label on your tanks and get some info for me? Model #, maker, size...

    I will try today. I have the pan for the floor storage unit out but did not see a tag. I will take a better look today and get back to you.
    Thank you for your help,
    Dave

    Well, that's not right. I would assume you double-checked all the wiring and looked for any shorts across the back of the gauge wiring, correct? And water in the tank is not an issue since you have been running it.

    I don't have any info here with me, who was the manufacturer of the gauge? I will send some info off the manufacturer and get some more troubleshooting info.

    Sandy,

    Found the info. You have the VDO Blue Line gauges. Those are 240E/33F gauges.

    Do you have access to an Ohmmeter if needed?

    Bob, I looked for a label on the tank but no luck. Not sure what to do next. I am pretty sure the tank is original. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Dave, as far as the tank goes, the most important part is the depth. Every 22 that I have seen has a 9.5" deep tank. I am sure yours is no different and won't be an issue.

    I do have a question on the VDO gauges, the same as Oledawg's. Do you have an ohmmeter and know how to use it or can have someone help you if you don't?

    I want to confirm a couple of readings from the gauge before proceeding.

    Bob, I do have a meter. What should I be taking the reading from?
    Thanks,Dave
