It's resistance. Old wires, more voltage than stock, mine was the same way. At this time the only solution is make a larger gauge harness yourself or buy the Racetronix stainless hanger with upgraded harness (the only way they'll sell it). It's on sale @ just under $100 and probably the best reliable solution. I bought one, had to bend the float just a bit to make it work and solved my wiring problem. Plus it'll last forever.
