This was on the Rover sender and a NOS ~74 one I have. I think these were the same going back to the 60's.


While since I had the sender out of my tank but I'm sure the "mechanism" part was mounted directly on the plate - no arm


Yes this is the usual mini sender I am used to, these ones are later type senders.

That adjustment might be handy - I've been trying to confirm the range of my Mini's sender to use with another fuel gauge. With the multimeter probes consistently the same way, I got a range of 275 Ohms (empty - ran out of fuel) to 66 Ohms (25L - full). I turned the probes around, and got 99 Ohms (4L put in it to run to the servo), and 13 Ohms full (25L)... :? Ignition was off at all times, this was just putting the probes on the two pins on the sender, nothing more. Didn't think changing to negative earth would affect the resistances like that... :? :? :?:
