Fuel level gauge- where is min & max on level gauge in tank?

[zetec]

Don't really fancy messing about with cans of fuel just to achieve the max & min to set up a stack gauge .

any advise gents??

The resistor readings for various senders are in the archives.

Never played with a Stack gauge but can you do it one pass by running to empty then adding say 5 l at a time?

If you have the Caterham standard stack I dont think you can calibrate the fuel settings.  I got mine unlocked by Stack.  The manual here (you need to register to access it)  gives you the calibration procedure for an unlocked unit.

I've got a replacement stack gauge for more acurate reading. 

i took out the float & did min & max on that but that can't mean min & max with fluids in.

i must be doing something wrong or have it set too low.

In calibration mode I did mine by adding fuel 2 litres at a time into the empty tank until I got the first reading.  That is 'Min' - 0 litres on the guage.  I think it took about 6 litres.  Then I added 2 litres for 3 settings and then 5 litres after that and took readings as per Stack's calibration procedure.  I think there is room for about 8 settings max.   I wanted more accuracy when the tank was low.
