Is anyone using the Zenith supplied sender and  buying VDO gauge 301-020? Can you get your gauges to read from empty to full? I  can't get past half way between 3/4 and full. Adjustment screw only regulates  lower end. Sender ckecks OK.

Bob,

  

 We've never had the gauges work properly.   Since everything is all apart it is on my look-at list but not sure what I can  do.  Any ideas?  This appears to be a common problem.

I have the same problem with this sender/gauge combo.  Around 7/8 is as far as the needle will go. I bench tested as well. I have decided to scrap the gauges and use the Dynon glass panel which can be calabrated.
