You're going to have to use the old manual gauge method using a flexible tube or a stick, you could try to guess bt thumping on the tank, but you best bet is to purchase a new fuel sending unit or gauge. You can ground the wire at the sending unit to the frame, if the gauge registers then the sending unit is bad
