I am going to be sending it in to have it rebuilt, but for now is there a temp fuel gauge I can tap into my wiring just so I know how much I have in there?
pretty much something I could find locally at orielly or napa.

 

Know the wire for it?

USe a dvm to check and keep it filled to above ten ohms

Fuel Level Gauge with OEM Sender - Auto Meter Tech Tips:

 

Oreillys has cheap fuel gauges, they are ok but not autometer quality. Been running one on our mud buggy for years. As far as I know all s10s used the same ohm sender as any old gm so just gotta find the wires to tap off of. Over on the planet Tink has a diagram of swapping from digi to analog clusters that has the wire info.

 

Thanks! Just want this as a temp fix until I get the dash in and repaired.. dont want a certain someone *coughgirlfriendcough* running it out of gas.
