Speedhut fuel gauge help

I can't get my gauge to give me the correct fuel level the factory sender is 90ohm from what I understand but I have tried all of there ohm settings and none seem right to the guys running these gauges how are you setting them up?

You can also do a custom calibration, but you'd have to do it manually w/ the pump out of the tank.

I would use a multimeter to check the ohm reading of the wire behind the rear seat before the cabin connector. That will tell you for sure if the sender is working correctly. If it is then you can pull the cluster and probe the connectors.
