Unfortunately it probably won't help knowing which wire is which. Mazda sending units use an odd ohm range so unless the AutoMeter gauge is set for the correct ohm range (Mazda vs say Chevy) it will not read correctly.

pull your sending unit out of your tank and bend the rod so it maKEs connection with the coiled wire
