Very common problem with nissan's. The most common prolem found is a break in the guage pod itself so that would mean replacing the cluster. Check the fuses and the ground wire from the fuel sender, nissan uses a 18 guage wire to frame. If all that checks out you can use an ohm meter as a make shift fuel gauge to test the sender itself.
