How to get your gas gauge to read correctly?? I have not been able to get my Gas gauge to read correctly I fill it up and it never goes all the way to the "F" and so when I get down below 1/2 tank I get gas what can I do to fix this? I put a new sending unit and have the voltage reducer hooked up. Any ideas?

So you are saying at a reading of 1/2 a tank the tank is empty?Am I correct to presume you have converted to a 12 volt system?

Yeah I have converted to 12volt. I think I am going to put in a new wire from the tank to te gauge and see if it makes a difference.
