My Firefly has an EIS panel that I added. To that I have added a fuel level sender. After initial install (I may have had to cut the probe, can't remember) and calibration the EIS Shows full at 200 empty at 0. The 200 seems odd but quite usable.
Recently it has lost calibration. I think it shows full at 50% and more. I haven't had time to try and recalibrate yet but my question is, with the power off etc, how does it maintain calibration? Is the calibration maintained in the sender or EIS? anyone else had trouble with this?

I believe I have a Princeton sender on mine. I called EIS and Sandy, who worked there at that time, told me the setting on the eis to use. Mine registers 5 gallons when full and the alarm is set to go off at 1. Nothing should change when the power is off. Its been so long ago, that of course I cannot remember the setting, so you might call them. I will try to see if I can find the documentation today.Larry
