Bad Resistor

[anchors]

The fuel gauge resistor on my 71 has failed, as these are no longer available I was wondering what anyone with this problem has used as a substitute. Does anyone know if the new gauges sold through the usual suppliers has the required resistance built in. Thanks.

New guage should work with no mods at all.

Have you tested the sending unit in the tank? These can fail.
