It'* just plain white. If you are looking to run a tach, the same wire is run to your gauge cluster if you have a tach on it.

Recently replaced fuel pump on 1999 Buick LeSabre. Yesterday, gas gauge read right at 1/4 tank. Trip-odometer read 295 miles. Based on how much gas it took (10.4 gal), the gauge should have read higher... closer to 1/2 tank. It'* not off by a lot, but reading deceptively low. Any idea as to why this is might be?
