Hey Ron,
Well, without doing any research this is how I would generally check
most any car's fuel sender.
Find the wire/wires coming from it at the tank and hook up an Ohm
meter between it and ground. Record that reading. Now fill the tank (or
empty it) to change the reading and check the ohms again. They should
read different if the unit is working properly.
If the sender is out of the tank then hook the meter between the
wire and the metal or the sender housing (ground). Now actuate the
float and see if the ohms change as you move the float arm up and down.
This might work, But! The reality is: I am new to Jeep ownership
(Just over a year) and I have not actually worked on the gas tank area
yet. I will soon though.
Good luck,
Bill
