    Trying to adapt a fuel gage circuit

    Thanks guys,! you can sure put some deep thought into this, but it makes sense and has to be looked at to this degree. The back of this fuel gauge has 2 post marked with a (+) and (C) I installed a car battery 12.44v and read 0.14A with no resistance, of course the meter pegged out. and no...

    Trying to adapt a fuel gage circuit

    Hi mugaliens, this meter reads empty 0 ohms and full at 128k ohms using 12v the sensor in my tank is around 17 ohms full and about 80 ohms empty with 12v. just trying to keep this as simple as possible! your idea sounds good, do you have a diagram I can look at? Thanks, ☺

    Trying to adapt a fuel gage circuit

    Hello Again BenchTop, .. been reading on a wide varity of applications this little guy can handle! Found a chip that's offered by Radio Shack - TL082/TL082CP Wide Dual JFET Input Op Amp (8-Pin DIP)Catalog #276-1715 Do you think this will work ok? Thanks, Kendall

    Trying to adapt a fuel gage circuit

    Hi All.. Scratching my head here! does anyone have a circuit solution to a project I am working on? I have a WWII Fuel gauge out of a B-17 Bomber that will work on 12v DC, if I put 128K ohms inline the gauge reads "full" my Jeep fuel tank is 17 ohms full and 80 ohms empty. trying to create a...
