Does anyone have any experience with EB Spares in the U.K. and the sending units they sell? The GTV I bought had a replacement tank and sending unit that were purchased from EB Spares. I have been having fits trying to get the gas gauge(and a new one from Andrew) to work. EB Spares' last email read that the gauge I have will work with either Jaeger of Veglia brand gauges. Can anyone confirm this?

I think they use two different sending unit depending on the brand of gauge as you have stated. I would contact EB Spares to see if they have run into this before.

To my knowledge Veglia-Borletti & Jaeger sending units are not interchangable and need to be matched to the gauge as they have reversed polarity, eg it will read empty when tank is full.

Fill her up at half full.

True. Try switching the connections at the unit. On mine, the choices are a) always reads "full" with the low fuel warning light on, regardless of how much fuel I have and b) reads empty when full and full when empty. I have lived with the latter arrangement (plus tracking mileage) but saw somewhere else that someone had the bright idea to bend the float rod on the sending unit to compensate for the polarity issue and think I might try this.

Good luck.
