ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Fuel gauge is jumpy

    okay guys, so im driving today in my cb and finally wondered to my self why my fuel gauge is hopping around, this is the oldest car ive owned and im curious if its just because they used a dif way to read the fuel level or what?

    Can you post some pictures or a video so that we can see the exact fuel gauge readings over time?

        From what your describing ,It sounds like you have an issue with the fuel pump sending unit.

          Very common for the sender to wear out over time given they're usually never replaced..

          happens more between 1/4-1/2 tank than any other position right?

          basically low fuel in your tank gives gravity more room to push the gas in your tank back and forth during stop and go. now there is a way to make it better, remove the fuel pump cap off and pressure ring, now if you can turn the whole assembly 1/4 turn left or right, replace the ring and cap and test it out.
