    I have a 92 lowrider that has the bulb out on the gas gauge, can anyone tell me how to get the gauge out of the tank, if it comes out. I can get it to come up, but something wont let it come up enough to get to the bulb. Am I missing something?? HELP.:confused:

    The tank gauge comes out as an assembly, haven't messed with a 92 but my 97 you apply upward pressure and wiggle and it will come out, wires run through the bottom of the tank, flip it over and you should be able to find the bulb and change it.

    Anyone who thinks that tech chat rooms are a waste of time, has never really tried them. Well you guys were right. I had gotten the gauge out of the tank but couldn't get it to come up far enough to get to the bulb holder. lo an bebold,the wires were the problem. After I read your coments, it started me thinking so thats the first thing I checked. There it was, my problem, right in my face. Thanks very much for the help. Maybe I can be of help somwere up the road:)
