Fuel Sending Unit

So I have been having issues with my gas tanks for awhile and I finally decided to tackle all the issues. First up I had a passenger tank which I had never used because the tank won't switch over. So I dropped that tank and upon looking inside decided to replace it. I have 2 new Spectra tanks with new locking rings. Right now I am looking at the sending unit from the passenger side tank to determine if it is good. Measuring off the ground and the electrical connection on the top of the unit, I am reading infinite. I am able to get some resistance when measuring below on the underside of the sending unit, but it is inconsistent and certainly not in the 0-90 ohm range I am expecting. Guessing a bad unit?

The meter should indicate 0 Ω Empty and ~90 Ω Full when connected between the pin on the top of the sender and the sender frame. If it doesn't, replace the sender.

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!
