the fuel gauge is incorporated inside the speedo meter in the super bug.
The fuel tank pressure sensor is for the EVAP system. It has nothing to do with the fuel gauge sending unit.
The fuel gauge is a very simple affair. The gauge itself, a 3 terminal voltage regulator and the in tank level sensor. Check fuses first, check for a good ground to the fuel gauge sensor on the tank. Pull the wire on the tank sensor, ground the wire, with key on gauge should deflect. No gauge movement means bad gauge or regulator. Reconnect wire. Check for 12V at the input of the voltage regulator, check for around 5V at the gauge side of the VR. If no suspect bad VR. If yes suspect bad gauge. If gauge does deflect when grounding tank sensor wire the intank sensor is bad and must be replaced.
Google/Yahoo---fuel gauge for 1973 Beetle. It will probably just be the "vibrator" part. Make sure you checked for loose wires and power to the tank.
To fix a broken speedometer and fuel gauge on a VW beetle, the parts need to be taken out and replaced. This can be done at any Volkswagen dealership.Ê
if you are refering to the sensor for the fuel gauge, it is in the fuel tank with the fuel pump.
In the fuel tank.
The most common reason for the fuel gauge in an Impala to stop at half full is a bad fuel sensor. The sensor is mounted inside of the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge sensor is located in the fuel tank. The fuel gauge sensor and fuel pump are one assembly. To my knowledge they are sold as one unit and is fairly expensive. The fuel tank must be dropped to R&R the assembly.

The fuel level sensor is on the fuel pump, in the fuel tank.
The fuel gauge could be getting improper signals from the fuel sensor. The sensor is located inside of the fuel tank.
