allcarfan said:you can take the wires off the sending unit, ground the one and run a hot wire to the other and see if your guage 'pegs' to F. You may just have to ground one wire off the sending unit. Thats the best way to check. I THINK I described that right. A sending unit isnt that much either. I got one for about $35 with a bronze float and a new ring.

while your gas is draining, see if you can get a spark from a hot wire by dragging it along your frame rail.
Its been a long few weeks, what can I say?

SLEEPERstang21 said:hey i hav the same problem i changed my sending unit but it stil acts the same. the gas gauge still moves but it only goes half full when i have a full tank.
SLEEPERstang21 said:yea they seem fine and working
Cobain03 said:if you still have the orginal gas tank, may want to consider replacing it. my gauge read 1/2 tank while sitting on empty. ha ha i was getting about 30 miles to the gallon untill i changed the sending unit.
a gas tank with a drain plug is like 75 bux at my dealer...

WORTH said:first make sure you have a good ground. Clean a place on teh sender and a place on the frame and run a jumper wire. See if that fixes it, if not the sender may be out of adjustment,
if you check the ground and still have the problem, tell me where the guage reads when it is full, and where it reads when it is empty , and I will tell you how to adjust it.
