Fuel Gauge Problems

Anyone know how to fix my fuel gauge on my 1990 b2200???? It always says it's empty except the other day i put in 50 bucks, and it said empty then a few minutes later almost a quarter tank, then back to empty. I know the tank doesn't leak, so i'm thinking maybe the sender????

RE: Fuel Gauge Problems

The senders on these go bad frequently. http://www.autozone.com/N,14900685//shopping/partTypeResultSet.htm or rockauto.com
About $50 for the sending units (for vehicles with mechanical fuel pumps)

RE: Fuel Gauge Problems

oddly enough it looks like the gauge works now, is it possible that the float was just stuck from sitting for a while (about a month are so) and driving it has loosened it???

Mine works sometimes, most times not. I'm using the trip odometer, plan to replace the sender soon.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:45 PM.
