You should be looking for a 0 to 90 ohm gauge.

This may work.

Actually,
That gauge will work if it's 90 ohm. Propane is fuel.
Brian hasn't called me back yet. Still waiting. Any 90 ohm gauge
will do the job.

Larry,
The gauge I have is a Rochester 5-90043. They make most of the LP
gas gauges for tanks. Brian from RV Trailer supply called and said he
opened every box and all he has are 30 ohm gauges. Manchester made
the tanks, rochester makes the gauges.

Dear Steven,

Somewhere, it's as much a mystery to me - I found you and I found a Rochester 5-90043 gauge. Well, I found you because you seem to have the same gauge. And I do not understand the way it should be wired to my LPG tank - so I figured I'd ask you for some help. Could you tell me what the three terminals are for? I have found GND, IGN & SEND. So what I figured is that I should connect GND to ground, IGN to the ACC (Accessory) terminal that gets power as soon as I turn the key & I should ask a LPG installer man to fit the SEND wire. Am I correct?

Thank you in advance for your reply,

Tim
