Fuel Level Gauge Inspection

Inspect the fuel level gauge in the following procedures:
1) Remove the fuel level gauge. Refer to "Fuel Pump
Assembly / Fuel Level Gauge Removal and
Installation in Section 1G (Page 1G-10)".
2) Measure the resistance at each fuel level gauge in
float position. If the resistance is incorrect, replace
fuel level gauge with a new one.
