Ok, you are welcome to seize your engine if you want. Running lean with the airbox off will fry a piston.

Besides just risking a piston roast, after installing the airbox low speed mixture will change. If factory initial settings aren't close enough to perfect, there's still something wrong.

Point taken....

Ok...what is the procedure to testing the fuel baffle for readings?

 

[Sportster-2001-951C-Stock]

The baffle resistance varies in Ohms from ~100 Ohms (empty tank) to a few Ohms when you flip it upside down (full tank). If you do this with it connected to the gauge, the gauge will move up/down scale accordingly.

I humbly apologize, overlooking that you have a DI, fuel injected, your symptoms usually lead to fuel pressure systems. Please clarify that yours is a DI, sorry.

The one that I am working on is a 94 XP, and a 97 GTS. Both of which fuel gauge does not work

The ski in question is not a DI ski.

 

[Gary pope]

His are not DI skis.

I do have a DI ski...01 RXDI

 

[mikidymac]

But you aren’t working on the DI on this thread.

 

[Gary pope]

I realize this....you made the statement “his are not Di skis” which assumes that none of my skis are Di’s....

[mikidymac]

My humblest apologies, therefore you are diagnosing an injected motor?...which is a whole different universe

Yeppers

No, this thread is on the 1994 XP with a 650 carbed engine.

If you would like to work on your DI please start a new thread on that ski, thank you.

 

[Gary pope]

Lol. I never mentioned any issues with my DI...

You said, "but I have a DI".

Post #37 is asking if you are diagnosing a DI engine?
Post #38 you reply "Yeppers".

 

[Gary pope]

I never really mentioned anything about diagnosing a DI engine in my original post Though...
