What does it mean when your fuel gauge reads over full all the time you have dual tanks on a 76 K10 and it reads the same on both tanks but moves down to full when you turn the key off?

never mind, I fixed it. I had a break in the wire from the tank selector switch to the gauge cluster. Funny thing is that wire runs from the switch out the firewall and down the left frame rail with the wires for the level indicators then runs across to the right side and up the right frame rail to the main wiring harness on the right side of the engine. My break was on the right frame rail near the transmission. Took me all afternoon to find the stupid thing.

Why does Suburban 2500 not transfer gas between tanks and stalls before empty and does not take a full fill up?
Sounds like the transfer pump in the rear tank is bad and you are running out of fuel in the front tank. The fuel gauge reads both tanks and gives you an average between the two. So, if the front tank is empty and the rear tank is full the gauge will read aprox a half tank.

How much fuel does 1985 XJ6 Jaguar hold in each tank?
The Jaguar XJ6 that has dual tanks holds 10 gallons in each tank. There is a tank change solenoid right below the power radio antenna in the trunk. The solenoid may be replaced with a similar solenoid or the solenoid can be replaced with a tee. This will allow the gas to equalize in both tanks. The down side of the tee is that you must still fill both tanks as the gas cannot equalize as fast as one tank is filled. You must also remember that the gas gauge is indicating the gas level of both tanks. Older tanks may have a lot of rust in them. Rock Valley Auto had replacement tanks at a reasonable cost compared to cleaning the old tanks. Mel
2001 freightliner dual fuel tanks - is there a switch to control which tank is used?
No. Both tanks flow to a crossover, which feeds into the fuel pump. Both tanks are used simultaneously.

Why does your fuel gauge on a 1992 Ford F150 with dual fuel tanks not recognize the forward tank when it is full?
Most trucks with dual tanks only have fuel sensors in one tank. I disagree with that as both of them have a float in them. It is possible there is corrosion to the float gauge on fuel pump. You can either replace fuel pump and gauge in tank or take old one out of fuel tank and clean up the crude in it.. I just did this to mine and it works now.. either way you have to drop tank or take off bed which I found was easier.
Word reads the same in both ways?
