Re: Fuel gauge wiring help
Is it a 'standalone / aftermarket smiths gauge? If so, its likely to be 12v so don't need a voltage reg. Gauge will get 12v to one terminal and the other connected to tank sender with tank sender body earthed. Easy test connect up and touch the sender wire to earth - gauge should indicate full. If the gauge tries to read minus then reverse the connections on back of gauge.
