Hello dsmuts thanks for the warm greeting! The main issue so far is the fuel gauge showing "Full" all the time. Not so sure yet what the best course of action is to fix it. Yeah if you have any insight your help would greatly appreciated! Thank much!

Gas Gauge is the level sendor, the fingers get worn off over time cause the gauge to read wrong.

Pretty simple fix if you're handy.

The part is found on ebay and other places for 20-30 bucks.

Here is a video on a bonneville (watch all 3), so its pretty much the same process.

If it's a gtp I have a spare fuel pump with a good fuel sender on it I'd sell you.

check your local junk yard too, if you can pull it your self youll save alot. pulled one for my car and took it off of the fuel pump assembly, only charged me 2 bucks for it, i really dont think they knew what it was
