    EGT fuel Guage

    ok i cant take this anymore..

    according to the guage.. when i get to half tank i die on right turns and if i go much past that it will die completely or not start..

    if i fill my tank all the way i leak.. thats cuz of the rottod metal peice that the locking ring goes into

    im tired of putting 4 gallons of gas in my car every other day

    i know i need to swap the fuel tank to fix the leak.. as the metal is gone.. my locking ring is sillicone sealed onto the tank and still leakes but not as bad..

    my guage goes to have when i have the issues of dieing and turning.. and i can deal with that wtvr..

    but then last nigth i was right about half tank and went to put gas in my car.. i get in start it up and the fuel guage rises to full.. now i know its not full i know it only has half a tank..

    i fill up 4.25 gallons and the pump shuts off.. needless to say i leaked that .25gallons of gas all over the parking lot.. ive put 40miles on the car and the needle is still above full..

    im lucky if i get 20mpg with the gtx/MS combo not being tuned

    b4 i did the swap the guage never moved. i do the swap and it starts working.. now about 6months later my guage stops working again..

    aside from a fuel cell what can i do to remedy this problem? anyone anything i just lookin for ideas here..

    oh and i modded the sending unit like in fixitmatt's How to on FEOA and i still die on right turns and have issues with the pump getting gas below half a tank..

    this reminds me of my purple gt, im glad the strut towers went...lol..... but ya i did the same thing as you and couldnt ever get it to stop under a 1/2 till i drained my tank when doing the filler. that got it to stop for a while untill it started again around 1/4 tank so i just gave up.....lol.... i bent that thing all sorts of ways trying to fix it, oh well .... almost makes me scared to put in my walbro....lol.....

      I just put a whole new fuel pump assembly in my car and if its under 3/8s tank , it will not run properly. It sucks. My fuel gauge is annoying too, I never really know exactly how much gas I have in the tank. Its always moving a little.

        be happy ur moves lol mine points straight right.. bout a 1/4 inch past full

        and i was dieing on right turns tonight..

        this is gay... i have my walbro in there and i even replaced the floater a while back.. im thinking the gas just eats away at the yellow signal wire till it dont work idk i will see what i find when i swap the tank..
