ok here its where im stuck. i have a 3rd gen camaro. the fuel level sending unit on my car reads 0-100ohms E-F. now im swapping to a fourth gen tank that reads 0-250ohms E-F. now how do i go about making my stock gauge read this accurately? do i swap sending units? what can i do? one of my main goals in the project is to make the car appear as stock as possible. meaning stock gauge cluster. so what do i do?

The solution is easy. Don't swap in a 4th gen tank.

the current word on thirdgen.org is that the v6 plastic tank car's sending unit used the same ohms as the thirdgen.

I read that in a post a couple weeks ago on here. If I get a chance I`ll dig it up.

Do you know Ohm's law? Time to hit the circuit book.
