Ohm range of Veglia fuel sender??

this is from playing around

I just remembered my DMM used went belly up a few months after this so might not have been accurate

Thanks.
Assume “FS” means full-sweep??

so we have your measured 282 ohms, and previous posts listing 200 ohms or 340 ohms.

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I looked but could not find the readings I took years ago when I replaced my gauge with a VDO.  I added a resistor to attempt to compensate between the gauge and sender.  The result was a reading of full which is accurate but falls off as the fuel drops.  I gave up and just measure it by hand occasionally not that I let the tank drop that much.  I like to keep fresh gas at all times.

If I remember, empty was the zero ohms reading or close to it.

Thanks 😁

For future reference.  My 73  sender has 340 ohms empty,  and 0 ohms full.  
just took it out this am to check because my Veglia gauge wouldn’t go above 1/2.

Thanks.

0-340 ohms exactly matches the range on the Dennis Quella custom VDO fuel gauge he installed for a previous owner on 2511.

as he was installing VDO gauges back in the 1990s I assume he contacted VDO and had them provide these gauges with the correct ohm range.

I added VDO gauges as well and calculated the correct resistor to add into the circuit to make it function.  I doubt VDO made special gauges for Dennis

here you go

this looks like a special gauge to me. 😉

I also know for a fact that when he was installing clutch master cylinders manufactured by CNC located in San Diego, he arranged to have them machined with mounting bolt center to center dimensions correct for Pantera, 2 1/8”. Standard spacing is 2 1/4”

I stand corrected.  My VDO p/n 301-029 I believe was a 33 - 240 ohm unit that I tweaked
