Gauge repair

[cadman777]

My apologies for hitting this old thread. I just replaced the stepper motor for fuel gauge in my 04 Trac the other day. I thinks it’s working fine since it started at just over a quarter tank and went to full after refill. After 60+ miles tho it’s still at full. Does anyone know if there is a calibration that needs to be performed?

Also I was wondering if anyone has found a different color cluster film? I was looking to go with blue instead of green. I’m going to replace the bulbs with led, but figured the green and blue would look purple. I ordered and changed the needles to blue from a GM.

My gas gauge read wrong b/c the pot on the fuel pump assembly was worn.
So I replaced the fuel pump and sender assembly and that fixed it.
Did the fuel pump while I was in there b/c the check valve was leaking down during no-run time.
