You can choose between 3 on the settings. Can't remember which ones there are but if you look on the acewell page it tells you.

I asked the same question to russbost on here from who I bought mine.
Hi Ian
It will work with (almost) any fuel sender. Acewell do 1 themselves but it's quite pricey at £39.95. Can order one if you want or if I can give
anymore info just ask.

Hi Russ
While your on I bought an Acewell speedo from you some time back. Any recommendations on a suitable fuel sender to suit?

Call me dim iv just found them on the acewell site. It says fuel resistance is 100 ohm. Nothing about altering it.
Failing that does anyone know what an ldv pilot fuel sender resistance is.

I'm with you Danozeman. My unit is on the car and working ( gsxr pump and sender cant remeber the resistance though.
It does work but falls from full to empty too quickly i.e. not linear with level. I di run out of once so know when it start to flash i have around
50miles grace before I'm in the poop 
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Iv never ran mine with the acewell gauge. I have a smiths one atm but want to use the acewell as the flashing is annoying.

My Acewell is the one russbost sells. I think it's a 3150 or 3250?
Anyway I've dug out the instructions and although I've set mine up I don't how I deciphered the steps.
It looks like you hold down the mode and reset buttons for 2 seconds to go into setup mode.
Use the mode button to cycle through the different functions.
After your gone through the few of the functions you get to the fuel sender one and I'll quote from the "instructions"
"It dispalys '100r' and fuel tank symbol', follow item 2 (press the reset button) to select 100, 250, 510 Ohm or off and
return to the main screen. The fuel meter bar will disspear if you select off mode"
Hope this helps. I gues you could solder a resisor with the sender if you couldn't find a range that works?
Dan, you're welcome to pop over to Debenham if you want a go with the instructions.
Regards
David
