Please don't drink and drive, sounds like there was liquid courage involved.

For the past few years my fuel gauge has read empty on my '08 Sportsman 800. I just thought the float was detached. and never got around to fixing. Well today I pulled the gas tank (need to change spark plugs.) and took off the fuel sender unit.

Sender unit looks good, float is undamaged and attached. I cleaned up the resistor pad with some scotch bright pad - but still it don't work. If I plug in the sender unit outside of the tank and manually move the float value it works. Yet when I install in the tank and fill with gas, I'm only get an empty reading.

A new sender unit is $450 so that's not an option.

I'm stuck on why this fuel float sender is not working properly

Any suggestions?
