I am relatively new to Morgan ownership having bought a 2006 4/4 two years ago and until recently I have not experienced any problems however I have now developed a fuel gauge problem.
On switching on the ignition the needle swings to full and stays there irrespective of the amount of fuel in the tank. I have assumed that there is either an electrical fault or the sender float is stuck in the full position so thought it would be a simple job to remove the sender unit from the tank to check. However on inspection the tank top is so close to the transverse wooden frame I would need to remove the tank in order to remove the sensor something I don't want to attempt. The roads around me are pretty bad and I had hoped that if it was stuck the shaking would free the float if stuck but no such luck. I have done a search on this site and see that most people seem to have had problems with the gauge accuracy something I didn't experience mine worked fine, I know I can rely on keeping a check on my mileage but would like everything working.
My question is are there any electrical checks (simple explanation please) I can do that may give a indication if the fault is with the sender unit or in the guage?
Thanks
