More than likely the float is bad on the fuel pump, so i would recommend that you change the fuel pump.
The same gauge light is on in my 1999 Olds Alero. Have you been able to find out the answer from another source? I was thinking low coolant or fuel but just a guess.
yes you have to remove the tank
Most fuel gauge problems are the result of a faulty fuel gauge sending unit located in the fuel tank.
1999 cadillac
1984, Corvette the fuel gauge stays at 1/2 full all the time. Plaese help.
Inside the fuel tank combined with the fuel gauge sending unit
might be a bad fuel sender unit or BCM
If the fuel gauge isn't working on a 1999 Chevrolet Blazer it could possibly be because the float is stuck in the fuel tank. I had this problem when I got my 99 blazer, the float and sensor for the fuel gauge is on the fuel pump which is in the fuel tank to keep it temperature regulated. I had to replace my fuel pump, which ended up going bad on me, and after it was replaced the gauge works just fine.
A bad fuel sending unit, a fault in the circuitry for the fuel sending unit, or possibly a faulty gauge.
The float in the fuel tank may need to be replaced.
my gas gauge doesnt work and i dont get a warning light when about to run out, mine goes to fuel when its about to run out
What is the fuel tank capacity of an Oldsmobile Alero
