cluster upgrade

cejay825 · 09-28-2008, 11:25 PM

I just put a 97 blazer clulster (w/tach) in my 95 blazer, everything is working correctly accept now my fuel gage is very erratic. Its like it reacts to the movement of the fuel with alot of sensitivity.If your just going down the road it reads correctly, but starting and stopping its all over the place.Any ideas on what may be going on?

Amount of voltage being sent from the pump..due to the pump and level sensor being all in one...don't have a direct answer..but thats how it works...a lil bouy floats up and down with a needle sliding up and down a contact point

You may have something there,I notice that after 95,or starting in 96 they went to an all in one unit (pump and sender in the same unit) my 95 is not like that,maybe the voltages are slightly different.I guess that could cause it? Can the fuel gauges be changed between the clusters ? ....I dont know if they come apart.If so, I could put my 95 fuel gage in the 97 cluster. anybody?

Maybe you didn't transfer the fuel gauge buffer.
