Thread: 1991 b13 fuel light not coming on

So i am selling my car but would like everything to be working so i want my gas gauge to work. The bulb is new and i ran the car out of gas and it never came on, all connections in the tank is hooked up and looks good but can someone give me more info on this matter. Thanks

They don't work. I wondered the same thing back when my old 91 was new. Ten years and the light never came on but you could see that the cluster had one. I want to say it is a universal cluster that Nissan used and never meant for it to operate. I was told back then that it shared the gxe cluster by the dude at the dealer. Hard to believe that was 20 years ago. Just my two cents.

it's the fuel sender. there was a tsb on them back in the day. but apperantly a lot of people didn't take advantage. you need to get a whole new sender. which sucks cause it's only availble threw the dealer.

I read up on that in the mid 90s there was a recall on them for a fuel problem. They changed the sending unit

Wow. I'll look in to this if my 92 does the same. Learn something everyday.

The one in my b14 just stopped working one day... guess how I found out...

Mine works, but not until it reads way below empty lol.

But like it's been said, probably the fuel sender.

its definitely the fuel sender my car when its full full full of gas the needle is like 1/8" before the F line and when its empty empty it reads below the E line and the light never turn on...

this happened to my 92 SE-R too. When I bought it 4 years ago I was happy that the car had that light, so I did the test as to when it wil light up... Never did I got stranded in the middle of the city with no gas and the damn light never went on...
I guess this is common on B13s then

I think its just as common in b14s when they reach the same age/milage
