Re: fuel gauge update

I didn't take the wire off the sending unit but pulled it off the fuse block. I tried to get it off the unit but was having trouble with the seat being so close.
I touched one end to the fuse block end and when end to the lug where the wire was at the unit and it was "closed" it was also closed from the fuse block end to the tank. Is that suppose to be? I will try to get it off. I was basically just trying to make sure my wire wasn't broke or grounding out to the body but it looks like it is picking up off the tank anyway.
I made up a new 100ohm resistor for the fuel gauge if I need and I will check the out put from the sending unit. I can check the end from the fuse block and ground right while reading ohms? should read somewhere between 0-90ohms?
If not broken wire or bad sending unit. If it is reading between 0-90ohms then resistor on fuel gauge might be back and check it for 100 ohms?
do I have this correct so far?
Thanks
