Fuel Sender & Gauge
A fuel sender on the fuel gauge uses a dipstick/fl oat system to measure
the amount of fuel left in the tank. This measurement generates a
specifi c resistance value in an electronic circuit connected to the fuel
gauge at the helm. As different fuel levels are reached, the resistance
value in the circuit with the fuel gauge changes which is read by the
fuel gauge and is converted to an approximate fuel level.
Fuel Tank
The fuel tank should be inspected for damage before each voyage.
This should be done when you check the fuel lines for tightness
and leaks. Your Regal boat uses an aluminum or polyester fuel
tank that has been tested several times along with other fuel system
components for safety requirements and dependability in house, and
they are inspected independently by National Marine Manufactures
Association personnel.
