86 Z 28 2 Questions

First off my fuel guage doesnt work. It goes straight to F and never moves. It did go down one time but i hit a bump and right back to F and has never moved? Second is when i crank my car the Door buzzer goes off and will not quit until i cut the car off. Does anyone know where this is and how to unhook it? Thanks for any help anyone might give.

Under driver side dash there is a black box about the size of a pack of cigarettes, had slots in it in a circular pattern - that's the buzzer - just pull and it unplugs like a relay.

Sounds like your fuel sender is damaged, not making a good connection, or is just shot - have to remove gas tank for that one.

You might try looking at the wiring diags for your car, finding the fuel sender wires at the instrument cluster, and testing the resistance on that connection at different fuel levels - good wiring diags at http://www.austinthirdgen.org/index.php?pid=19
