Never tried but it sounds like it should.

No! a fuel level gauge is operated by a fuel level float moving up or down with the fuel level. It's a simple resistor which changes with the fuel level in ohms. With the gauge connected to the sending unit the ohms applied at the guage will give you the fuel level. Hope this makes sense. Anyhow the only way to make a fuel gauge work is to install a sender in the tank. It can be done with an aftermarket sender that's adjustable for the depth of the tank if you want to go to the trouble.

If you have a stock ez go gas tank, ezgo makes a stock variable resister sending unit shown in link below. Then you would need compatible electric fuel gage for dash mount
