WIll be interesting to see what you find.
So I pulled out the sending unit and lo and behold the ohm reading changed from 0 to 95 by moving it. So I figured that the 3.5 gallons of gasoline I put in the tank wasn't enough. So I drove to the store, bought another 4 gallons and put that into the tank. No change. I read the ohm reading and it was 15.9 but the fuel meter was still reading just at the empty line. So I pulled the sensor again and connected the sender outside the tank to the connectors and move the level. Fuel gauge changed appropriately. I guess what must have been happening was the float was getting jammed up against the side of the tank. I adjusted it a little more towards the front of the tank. Hopefully that's all it was! It's now reading half a tank with 7.5 (ish) gallons in the tank. I guess that sounds about right? Thanks all.
