The belt position thing is an idea. It turns out I had installed the diode in the "I" wire backwards. When I restsarted the engine the volt gauge went to 16 but trimed down to 12.5 - 13V. Now the fuel level gauge pegs to empty when the ignition is on .Ive tried every possible combo. .As long as the ground is connected to the meter , power to either "I" or "S" ,gauge pegs to empty.Lead to tank is good but has no effect.Seems like I'll be buying another meter.
