    Fuel Level?

    Is something like this already in HPT? If not, can we get it? I'm tired of my fuel gauge not reading what is actually in my tank...

    I was always under the impression that the sensor/sender inside the fuel tank was the cause of inaccurate low fuel readings.
    intresting though

    Basically, I want a linear output. When I have 8.4 gallons in the tank, I want the gauge to read half.

    Now...the "Fuel Gauge Output vs. Level" graph makes some sense to me, but the other graph has no correlation to anything I see in my car. When I'm driving my car, when the gauge reads 1/4 tank, that means that there is about half a tank of gas in there (it fills up with about 8-10 gallons at the pump when on 1/4 tank). Actually, neither graph depicts what I actually see in my car come to think of it...

    Am I missing something here?

    I haven't actually tried the tune in the second pic yet, and won't be able to until tomorrow.

    Any ideas? Or am I just gonna have to trial and error this thing?

    And for that matter, how can you have a PWM value of 110% Pulse Width Modulation correct?

    heres the only thing I changed, this seems logical to me that it would work, but I am with you on the other stuff, I have looked and looked at parameters and all the fuel tank PIDs, nothing.
