56-61 GAS TANK METER / SENDING UNIT

Description

The fuel line is 3/8 inch O.D

This meter has a brass nut on the end, to attach to the brass nut on the gas line coming from the frame to the tank.

This 1956-1961 C1 Corvette fuel meter (sender) has a range of 0 – 34 Ohms. This fuel gauge is like an OHM meter in that it measures electrical resistance, the higher the resistance, the higher the needle goes. When the float is “down” resistance as measured with an ohm meter, is near 0. With the float “up” resistance is about 14 Ohms

Electrical components such as sending units are non-returnable parts.

Always refer to a factory service manual when diagnosing engine service problems. You can damage electrical components if the proper procedures are not followed. Be sure you are replacing the correct part.
