recently purchased, need some help

[Grubdub]

I'm 16, a girl recently totaled my 190e, whilst it was parked.


sooo i had to buy a new car, i bought a 650$ APV.

Two things are wrong, the back bucks like a bronco at every dip in the road, and the gas gauge is pegged at full,

could you guys please advise me on how to fix these probloms?


thanks a bunch

OK..so it it a '93...if you come back for mechanical issues, specify engine type.
I had that bronco effect once i had Gabriel inflatable shocks installed in replacement of the OEM inflatales....went back to normal once MOnroes inflatables were in. So it is a shock absorber issue. DO you have the auto leveller option (the compressor is under floor, behind rear left wheel well). It would have also compressor on-off buttons to inflate tires accessible with accessory hose inside at the rear left utility pouch. If so you will have to decide if you keep the inflatable option or switch to conventional shocks.
The fuel tank indicator is probably tank sensor gone haywire...or some wiring mishap... www.avigex.ca/xport/instrumentpanel.jpg
If sensor conductor (purple wire) is disconnected it will indicate full. If you ground the wire it will indicate empty.

Sender is, as expected, in fuel tank..need remove fuel tank to access it. For test purposes however, if you prefer not to drop fuel tank at first, you have connector C200 as shown on diagram. THis connector is at LH A pillar, so front of driver door, a little bit higher than floor level supposedly, contains 26 contacts and fuel gauge wire is A6 color PURPLE. Need remove trim panels to access

YOu can try to insert a ground at this pin and the fuel indicator should indicate empty. If so, you know the problem is down the line to the tank. Usually I use a needle driven through the wire insulation and a jumper with alligator clips to connect to ground. ONce you have done that however, COVER THE HOLE..even is it it just needle tip size, with silicon or other sealant. YOu have no idea how easily a wire exposed to atmosphere --even with so small an access - will corrode and cut out against your wildest expectations.
