1981 Carver 3007 Fuel System
Just became a member and looking for answers already! Recently bought the Carver and I am lacking any real electrical drawings. Problem being faced is this;
When power is applied to console and fuel level is sought by switch, either Port or Starboard:
A) Lights come on the fuel indicator gage
B) No needle is ever show
C) 5 gallons of fuel has already been placed in each tank
Since I see no change when calling either tank, it appears either an open wire or bad gage. But I would love to find some wiring diagrams before 'diving' in.
Thanks

I believe each of the tanks is 86 gallons and 5 gallons probably would not be enough to move the needle much if at all.

That would save me a bit of time tracing with the meter, I will give it a look

Re: 1981 Carver 3007 Fuel System
I also love how much room there is on a 30' boat. Does yours have the sofa/chair combo or do you have the dinette in yours.
