Question on 6 volt 1955 E38 truck, gas sender

[grobb284]

I have a question on a 6 volt 1955 E38 two ton truck. Can someone give me the gas sender resistance empty and full. I don't have a shop manual.

I saw the post on 1953 car gauges being 0 ohms full, 90 empty, but have no idea if these are the same.

Trying to help a friend here, he desires to keep his original 6 volt gages.

0 empty, 98 full. But on the 12v vehicles, it's rather the opposite direction: 240 empty, 33 ohms full.

Here's a thread with some good info, including a J.C. Whitney part number for the 6v sending unit:
