fuel tank switching solenoid
Hey all you way smarter mechanics than me, how do I test the solenoid on the frame rail for switching tanks?? Finally have both gauges working more or less correctly, the fuel gauge still bounces like crazy while driving but hey it's only for approximates anyway....
As always my many thanks to you all for all your help John |

Re: fuel tank switching solenoid
Try putting power to the switch on the valve and double check your grounds on the sending unit wires:
