I was rearended a couple months back and my gas gauge has read empty since then. I Dropped the gas tank and everything seemed fine then replaced the gauges trying to think of possibilities. Im guessing the probem is between the tank and the gauge, possibly wiring?

 

Take out the sender and put an ohm meter on it and move the float from zero to full and make sure you don't have a bad spot in the resistor.

Very common problem on sending units. Most of the time the gauge is just fine.

 

I will definitely try that this weekend when i have some time, thank you.

 

Try to troubleshoot if the gauge is sending a voltage to the console...

 

If the above suggestions don't help then an extra ground of the sender might be worth a try.

 

thanks for all the suggestions, hopeffully one of them will work

 

turns out the sending unit was afro engineered. thanks for all the help and suggestions.
