gas guage adjustment

[Daddybus]

Is there any way to adjust/recalibrate a 12v gas guage? I haave a '67 bus with a fatchick 15 gallon tank. The guage doesn't read full when the tank is full, so when it is on "R" if has more than 1.5 gallons left.

Do you have the fatchick sender in the tank or the 67 sender. The later sender is a couple inchs longer then the early sender

If the sender has an arm with a floaty thing on the end, you can bend the arm to adjust it, but if you have the tube type you're S.O.L.

I am running a fatchick tube sender. I was hoping that there was some adjustment dohiccus on the guage to calibrate it.

I heard that there is a screw on the back of he guage that you can turn to adjust where the needle sits, but that was an unsubstantiated rumour and I never tried to do it. Seems every guage reads slightly differntly, too.
