TarmacAttack Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Hey guys, 81' KE55 rolla, when the tank is full the needle points to full as it should but if i drive say 20kms then turn off and restart, the gauge will show 3/4. Some times 1/2. If i bang the dash it may come back up, or on the down hill sometimes. I already have pulled the cluster and sprayed contact cleaner on the tabs on the back. Any others common faults?

Crostek Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 My KE70 had a similar problem, would show full and then not work again I was half full But my problem was in the tank sender The sender in the tank had worn just where the metal slider/wiper rubs on the resistor. I pulled the sender out through the inspection plate in the boot and cleaner the rust and other junk off the resistor, bent the wiper to rub a bit harder against the resistor and it been all well since.
