The fuel gauge on my G20 is pegged to empty with the tank full and we were thinking the sender was bad but after a search i came up with this post from B-T on pistonheads in 2009:
"I would also like to get a fuel gauge sending unit that matches the ohm range of the Smith's gauges in the dash (currently it read empty when full and about 5/8 when empty)."
So what the hell? I would have thought the sending unit and the gauge would have been compatible Smiths units to begin with?. Is this a common issue and does anyone know what sending unit would work with the gauge? We're also not sure how to access the sender. anyone with help would be appreciated. i can also be reached via email: jcole@jeffreycolearchitects.com. thanks. PS look at my turbo install down the posts if interested.

My US Spec G20 reads full when full, but goes dry at about a quarter tank. I'm not sure what the fuel tank is sourced from, Mazda or something else. I did get matching instruments from a US supplier. They should be able to help with your sender, if you identify the source of your tank. US source was Info@gaugeguys.com

My blower mod is nearly done. Ironing out a few bugs. Picture posted with your turbo thread.
