Well after a quick look at the thread below I grabbed a really sharp knife and started to tear out the epoxy inside my junk (only junk cause wires broke off at the sender)..... I got her dug out of there and tested it with a meter........ needless to say the meter was ALL over the place....I grab a side cutter and cut one side of the resistor of the potentiometer and VIOLA!
meter reads really smooth. I went to radio shack to pick up a new diode and the had the 1k ohm resistor BUT! it was only a half watt, a little smaller than the one that ABradley put on it years ago...... will the half watt diode work? or do I need to seek a larger one?
