Default Problems

My gas gauge will only read when the tank is almost on e. It will show up as a full tank until I am almost out of gas then the gauge needle will jump around and after a while will eventually sit on e. Is this electrical or most likely in the tank?

Also my heat gauge stopped working recently. All the fuses are good!


Any suggestions?

As for the fuel gage, I would check for corrosion on the sending unit arm thats on the fuel pump in the tank.

But see that is the thing the fuel gage is reading it stays on full tank until i only have a gallon or two left then it will sit on e. I was thinking the float arm in the tank could be stuck or could electrical problems cause this?

"the float arm in the tank" is the sending unit arm.
