When I first fill the tank, the fuel gauge acts normally. When it gets down to about 1/2 a tank, it flops all the way to the right and stays there until the tank is almost empty. Then it acts normally again. Is this a float problem? How hard is this to fix?
Mine has been doing that for years and years and years...first the front tank then the rear.
Think it's the sender...cure = drop the tanks [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img], screw that, I'm use to it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/vomit.gif[/img]

Mine started doing the same thing 2 weeks ago. I don't think it could be the sender because I just replaced it last year about 10,000 miles ago. Mine was working perfect until the ABS fuse blew 2 weeks ago [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]?
My was doing the exact thing for a real long time.Wasn't to worried about it.Now it only reads off the front tank and when I touch the brake it the needle on the guage bounces around.Could this be the sender(s)or guage?Or the fuel selector valve on frame?I'm the s$%*s on electrical.
Thanks
