i bet its the wire, mines going haywire right now because of that. i replaced the sending unit and it worked fine for a few. then started acting crazy after i drove it awhile.

i dug back in there and found the insulation had cracked way down in there from me moving it around while installing the new unit. it was pretty hard to find, but now it grounds out against the block and goes a bit crazy now and then. it's going to be hard getting in there to fix it, but i'll do it eventually
