Replaced the none functioning gas gauge in the esox mag. Now when I fill it up it indicates it is only 3/4 full? I fill it up at the station and then when I"m level in the boat, on the water not moving it only states I have 3/4 a tank. Any ideas on why?

thanks

Any corrosion on the connections at the tank sending unit will increase resistance and throw off the reading. I had a similar issue, reading about 1/2 tank under and took off the connections and cleaned them up with a little steel wool and all is good. Obviously not the only possible issue but one to check for.
