GRT6000 fuel gauge calibration

I am having trouble getting my fuel gauge calibration set correctly.  I have Zenith supplied vow sending units mounted on the side of tank per the plans and drawings.  The sending units should  read 0 empty at 11 ohms and full at 0 ohms if I remember correctly. Following GRT calibration directions I am no where close to correct readings.  Can anyone share the correct calibration settings.  ThanksSee More

Hi everyone. I will be in Mexico for open hanger days next weekend. I am bringing with me a complete 601/650 tail kit, 650B plans package, 750 Stoll plan package, and 2 complete Corvair engines, less the car shrouding blower and carbs. These both have all the right numbers for WW conversion. If interested text me at 719 466-3101 for more details and pricing. Thanks Michael Armstrong, Pueblo CO 750 Cruiser # C75-10558
