My 85 fuel gage only goes up to 7/8 and then drops way below E. This problem happened once before in the past after a Moab trip and then it seemed to reset itself. After my last trip to Moab it happened again and won't reset. Anyone heard of this happening or have any idea what the problem is? I think the angles and dangles do something to it. I have an extended cab and I think it is 16+ gallons.
My gauge drops to empty within the first 90 miles. I know it's the sender, but it's not a high priority to fix it. Sounds like yours might have a short or open in the sender wire.
