1. Slowing the Fuel Gauge Fluctuation on an LBC (score: 1): Author: Wildbil923@aol.com; Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 21:13:22 EDT; A very knowledgable lister suggested the following means for slowing down the fluctuation of the fuel gauge needle action on an LBC: running from the gauge to the sender unit. Supposedly if you were; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00878.html (8,817 bytes)

Most guages have pretty slow responses (see how long it takes to stabilize when you turn the car on). I don't know what the resistance of the sender is but I'; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00879.html (10,161 bytes)

RE: Slowing the Fuel Gauge Fluctuation on an LBC (score: 1): Author: Hans Duinhoven <H.Duinhoven@simac.nl>; Date: Fri, 20 Aug 1999 08:37:11 +0200; it's quite uncommon for fuel gauges to fluctuate quickly, because they work on a hot wire principle. I suggest to check all connections to the gauge thoroughly and check for poor contacts. Furtheron; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00884.html (11,235 bytes)
4. RE: Slowing the Fuel Gauge Fluctuation on an LBC (score: 1): Author: Barney Gaylord <barneymg@ntsource.com>; Date: Fri, 20 Aug 1999 03:35:52; Hold on a sec. Back up a little before MGB times, say the '50s and early '60s. Earlier LBCs did not not use hot wire actuated gauges or voltage regulators. My MGA fuel gauge has the needle balanced b; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00885.html (9,667 bytes)

Barney, The type of gauge you describe as being in your MGA is called a cross field gauge. They are still used today with the addition of a damping circuit (small electronic board) that da; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00895.html (10,083 bytes)

7. Re: Slowing the Fuel Gauge Fluctuation on an LBC (score: 1): Author: Barney Gaylord <barneymg@ntsource.com>; Date: Fri, 20 Aug 1999 19:44:09; gauge doubles as a G meter,.... :-). .... I actually like the wobbly fuel gauge. I am often running the tank near empty for a couple of reasons. When autocrossing I don't like to carry the excess wei; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00908.html (9,544 bytes)

Re: Slowing the Fuel Gauge Fluctuation on an LBC (score: 1): Author: "Tim Economu" <economu@whidbey.com>; Date: Mon, 23 Aug 1999 09:51:02 -0700; Remember that one time constant is the time used to go 63% of the total voltage swing. One time constant is equal to the resistance times the capacitance: So, t = RC for 40 ohms, and 5000 microfarad; /html/mgs/1999-08/msg00973.html (9,119 bytes)
