Bruce,
Interesting problem you have. I think I'd be having a closer look at the
tank end, I don't know why so it's just a hunch as I've seen this problem
before but a long time ago and I can't recall what the problem turned out to
be.
On the tank the sense wire from the gauge to the sender is a single (yellow)
wire that goes through the resistor and contact and then to earth. The
wiring diagram that I have shows that the earth at the tank end connects to
the top of the sender unit but it's difficult to tell where it actually
connects to the body. Did you notice whether or not you have an external
earth wire attached to your sender, even if it's there it may be worth
connecting the sender unit to another earth away from the tank.
Then again - I may be off the mark here.
regards,
Terry

Terry,
The bad news is I tried 3 different dash units
complete, then thinking it may be as you correctly
stated, I also swapped the temp and fuel units between
complete sets ( to ensure the Earth was not the cause
as is many a case with the Datto) and same result.
So the "quandry" still resides ..
Thanks
Bruce
