Delco,my VT 6 had the same issues with the fuel guage...i left it like that for 3 years until it stayed empty all the time and finally replaced the sender in the tank.
No wonder it woudnt work anymore as the tracks on the card had worn a groove and the contacts had worn away.
1 hour later and job done.....i cant understand why i didnt do it sooner :lol: :lol: it was russian roulette as i do 800+kms a week.

Nice new ride Mike. My wife has one as well. My daily driver is a vx one tonner so it will be interesting to see what kind of power you can get out of it.

I'm heading down to welly in about 30 mins. Give us a txt if you have time for a beer or other wise this evening. Numbers on the previous page.

Cheers,

Doug
