Hendricksn 10 #1 Posted November 8, 2016 So I just bought a 97 520-H with 235 original hours. The fuel gauge doesn't work on its own. If you pick the sender up with a magnet, it works. But falls back down again. Is there anything that could be missing to help hold the float up? Any help would be great. Thanks 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 52,034 #2 Posted November 8, 2016 Sounds like the float is water (fuel) logged. Pull the sending unit and check it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hendricksn 10 #3 Posted November 8, 2016 I looked at the float and I didn't see any liquid. I'll have to pull it all the way out and check. Any chance it's one of the springs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k2wilson 41 #4 Posted November 16, 2016 (edited) Are you sure it's a 97? Didn't the 96 anniversary model have the gold lettering and gold logo on the front? Either way, good find!! Here's my 97, note the color of the lettering. Edited November 18, 2016 by k2wilson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
