hi all, i have just bought a wb ute 253 on straight gas. the car never came with an lpg guage so i wanted to hook it up to the standard fuel guage. the dash is out of a wb statesman. the ohms on the lpg tank are 0-90ohms, the tanks half full reading about 43 ohms so i assume the sender is ok. from what info i could dig up was the fuel guage is 73ohms empty, 25ohms half, 10ohms full not 100% sure. i realise i need a different sender but with half tank of gas at 43 ohms it still should be getting a reading on the guage. when hooked up it goes straight to full. any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks . craig.

Hi craig.
The info you dug up was for WB utes & vans. The Statesmans are different.
The Statesman fuel sender is 282 ohms empty, 97 ohms half & 40 ohms full. Luckily, this is the same as for VB to VS Commodore, so obtaining the correct sender should |
If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |
