Gas gauge only reads half when full
Hi everyone, I installed a new gas tank sender in my 63 after bench testing it and confirming ohm range on the bench.
However after installing and filling it up, it only reads half full after filling the tank up.
Is there a way to calibrate this? Does it involve bending the float arm? I'd hate to drop the tank again.
I've searched the forum high and low for this issue and haven't been able to find anything - just some dead links when referring to gas gauge calibration in this thread.
Thanks in advance!

The gauge is out of calibration. I have gas gauges that I had calibrated at an electrical shop for 125.00
email me at russ@thecadishack.com if interested.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed
Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
