I have a '92 Accord EX and my gas guage is really tricky, I don't think it is at all accurate whenever I get below half a tank of gas. I had to switch my guage cluster whenever a new guage install didn't work and it is still weird. Everytime I brake fairly hard, the guage drops some and whenever I acclerate is goes back to about the spot it was at......I was wondering if anyone had any input or suggestions on how to fix it?

check the fuses or wires.. hmm not to sure

 

i think the sensor in the tanks of the 4th gen is pretty crappy...i notice when i go up and down hills the guage moves A LOT...which would happen also if you hit the brakes or accelerate...i think your ok

 

have you tried replacing the gauge itself. i think its something like $95 bones from honda. however, i broke off a needle doing a lighted gauge face install and was able to get the ENTIRE gauge assembly (tach, speedo, odo...) from a junk yard for only $50.

 

I also broke off a needle doing the "white face guages" thing...... I got a '91 cluster from junkyard for like $30...I took the old one out, and just plugged in the new one.

 

Thanks guys.
