Well, it turns out it was both the sending unit and the gauge that were hooped. I replaced the gauge and it seems to be reading properly, although I’m not exactly sure how much fuel is in the tank. I will fill it right up then I will know if it is working properly.
The gauge does move when I...
I just want to know if I’m on the right track here.
My old fuel sending unit was showing erratic readings on the multimeter so I got a new one. Tested it on the multimeter and it was moving smoothly through the range of 30 to 240 ohms, or what would be empty to full. But when I hook it up to...

No, we have shops here that work on Evinrudes. This fella has access to all the info. Gave him the serial number and he pulled all the info on it. Current owner, service detsils, etc…

Ran the serial number with a Evinrude mechanic, motor is clean and still under warranty until 2027. The fella passed away and family is selling it. Apparently properly winterized properly before it was stored. Beauty Double Eagle 185 and price is more than fair. Gonna go look at it again today
