Fuel Gauge Problem Stagea

[matt-turner]

hey if any one has a problem with their fuel gauge in their stagea cluster i have figured it out!!

when i first brought my stag the fuel gauge would move all over the show when it got low in the tank .i started by replacing the sensor in the tank ...no luck just wasted 400 bucks lol nissan spare parts are great they can get me any thing i need so always try them if u need anything !so the problem was found in the cluster by pluging another dash in for a series one stagea which work fine even though it was a auto custer in a manual stagea .it turns our that The brains for the fuel gauge is behined the speedo so u have to change the whole thing which look on ebay and u can get on.

hope this helps anyone matt

Hmmm... I wonder if this would have fixed my issue: when a mechanic refitted my cluster, they just assumed the car had half a tank of fuel (sloppy!), when it actually had a full tank. As a result, as soon as I had less than half a tank, the needle went way below empty. ever since, it was stuffed: it would only ever read as high as half, even when full, and it would drop below empty (and beyond whenever there was a half tank of fuel or less in the car. Trying to reposition the needle at full with a full tank made no difference....

Doesn't matter now anyway: I have a spanky new Dolphin cluster for 260RS, complete with 10,000rpm tacho and 300kph speedo. It was an expensive, though...

my NM35 does this.?!!!!!

when its completely full it shows 3/4's

and then gets to empty and still has 1/4 tank in it.

so i keep driving until i see the light come on.

i might try removing the cluster when the tank is "really" empty and then filling the car and seeing if this does anything.
