Yep, that was me. I'd checked the wiring, the voltage stabiliser and the
sender and couldn't work it out. Even the gauge seemed to work OK when I
tested it on the bench. As a last resort I took it apart (needs a delicate
touch) and found what looked like carbon on the coil in there. I scraped it
off with a knife and it's worked fine since.
