Unless the fuel gauge is labeled incorrectly, they should be connected correctly. Up until i when i went out to the garage an hour ago the gauge, when the ignition key is turned to on, would just pop up to a hair past the half full mark and then return to empty a few seconds later.

The only diagrams i received with the Smith's gauges said that the numbers 1, 2, and 3 on the gauges indicated the following

1= Sending unit wire

2= 12 volt source

3= Ground

I guess i will just all centroid in the morning and see what they think. The hole in the top of the tube is not blocked, so fluid is moving in and out of the tube freely. The sending unit says it was manufactured in February of this year.
