Has anyone measured fuel senders?
My tanks read Empty after using exactly 27 gallons of fuel. So roughly half a tank remaining and I'm on empty.

Normally I fill up anyway, but I'd really prefer them to read a little more accurately than this.

My thought is if I know what the resistance on the senders is maybe I can add some inline resistors to get them to read a little more accurately.
As with an airplane I don't really care if they read full accurately I just want them to read empty when I'm actually empty.
