Brand: Auto Meter Gauges
The AutoMeter Ultra-Lite Series is the hottest thing in gauges, preferred by professional racers in all forms of motorsport. They make perfect sense because the aluminum construction greatly reduces weight while satin anodized aluminum and bright red flourescent pointers make them easy to read. The electrical gauges are quality engineered with a rugged air core movement for maximum accuracy and quick response time. 60 degree sweep. Ultra-Lite gauges are all available in 2 5/8 inch size.
This electric Fuel Level Gauge will work with a Chrysler or early Ford "73 to 8-12 Ohms" sending unit (not included). This sender style has a non-linear resistance: 73 Ohms just below "E", 50 Ohms at Empty, 25 Ohms at half a tank, and 10 Ohms (nominal) at Full. This range was used on many Chryslers and Fords prior to 1987.
Note: This gauge is designed for use with the original, non-linear sender only. Many aftermarket senders currently sold as "73 to 10 Ohms" have a linear movement, with 41 Ohms resistance in the middle of the scale. Using a linear sender will cause this gauge to read nearly half a tank when the tank is almost empty!
