FC fuel level guage sender wire

I am doing all aftermarket guages in my FC, and im not sure what wire is the signal wire for the fuel level guage. I know that the sender is in the tank with the fuel pump but im not sure which wire to connect to. Also does anyone know what ohm levels to calibrate the guage to?

FSM Wiring Diagrams chapter has the wire colours (look for the instruuments section).
FSM Body Electrical chapter has indo on sensor resistance (again look for the instruuments section).

W/G is the wire you want, the W/R is the low fuel warning lamp wire for the dash. I believe when I asked the question a few months ago, the answer I got was 0 ohms full and around 103-106 ohms empty. I had to go with a programmable sender to get that range, but I haven't done the install yet.
