My fuel gauge is not working on my 69 dart and I was wondering if there is a way to bench test it while I have it out of the car. I am suspecting it is the sending unit but I want to be sure that it is not the gauge itself.

All it is is a pot. Do you volt/ohm gauge to test it with? This should be very easy to do.

Put 2 D cell batteries in series. Connect the ends or the batteries to your guage. It should read approx. full with the 3 volts.
Hope this helps.
