Does anybody know the signal output from a Skysport, capacitance type =
fuel
level probe?  I bought it a few years back intending to use a Westach =
(or
Mitchill) panel gauge, and got a probe for a 0 - 90 Ohm gauge.  Now I =
want
to run the signal to my engine monitor system with digital display.

I don't know what the signal output from the probe is - or the range.  I
have called and e-mailed Skysport, and all I have been able to do is =
confirm
that it is for a 0-90 Ohm gauge, which doesn't answer the question.  =
Further
inquiry has so far gone unanswered.  I'd like to avoid , if possible,
uninstalling the probe to make measurements just for concerns of leaks; =
and
I'm not ready to fill the tank with fuel.

=20

Figured it couldn't hurt to ask, I've gotten lots of useful input from =
this
group over the years; and it is greatly appreciated.
