Re: Quick Fix

What sending unit are you referring to; the fuel level? You may get more responses under "Electronics".

Re: Quick Fix

Short version: Drop tank. Install new sending unit. Reinstall tank.
You can verify it isn't a problem with the wiring or guage by unplugging the connector, then grounding the two pins together on the side that is running to the guage. If the guage moves, your wiring and guage are ok, and you can proceed with the sending unit.
