Default Re: Fuel gauge problem

Heres the update, I checked it out today, see when i pulled it out the fuel
sending unit was dangling from the pump, well i thought it was normal
therefore i put it bac kthe same way, well the float got caught up on the
sock filter, well i attached the unit to the pump then hooked up ohm meter,
was reading resistenace, and reinstalled it, I will repost later if anymore
problems, I filled the tank all the way up, I will see at half if its
acuarate ornot , again THANKYOU guys for the help.
