Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - Fuel Gauge or Sender Problem?

Hello,

I have a 2009 Plus 4 that has a fuel gauge problem that means I can't ever be sure how much is in the tank unless I drive using the trip. I know the gauges on Morgans are vague but the fuel gauge inaccuracy is something I have to address. The gauge doesn't flicker it just moves randomly by a quarter of a tank at will! I cannot fill the tank up for it to read full and I'm not brave enough to drain it. A few questions:

1. Any thoughts as to whether this is a defective gauge or is it the sender?
2. Is there a sequence, tester or process to go through to identify the exact component that's failed?
3. It's a black faced Smiths gauge with three functions - oil pressure, water temperature and fuel. If the gauge is the problem can I replace the fuel gauge part only?
4. Does the gauge come out without removing the dashboard?
5. If it's the sender I assume that I'll have to replace the full fuel pump and sender assembly? Is this relatively straightforward?

Thank you for any help.

Tony

Surely just filling tank to fuel hose cutoff tells you it's full
