It could be the sending unit which is part of the fuel pump assembly.
To replace the sending unit you must change the fuel pump.
Fairly easy. I replaced mine by lifting up the bed of the truck rather than
removing the fuel tank. Took about 1 hour.
Bad dash ground.
There is a float ball in your gas tank that tells the guage what to say. The odds are it is either stuck or has a hole.
It could be the fuse, but mine is because the floater that measures for the gauge is stuck.
I had a 2wd 2000 ranger xlt and this happened to me. The part that I replaced is called a "speed sensor". It in an inexpensive and easy part to change out yourself. It is located on top of your rear end under the bed. A simple wrench will do the trick.
A common cause for a gas gauge to stop working in a 1994 Ford Aspire is a defective fuel gauge. Lose wiring in the dash is another cause.
No, not related.
Many sending units do not have continuity below 6-7psi. This would cause the gauge to read nothing and indicate a base engine problem. Some type of engine noise would be associated with this concern (ie. ticking, rattling). The sending unit or wire to the gauge could be open. This would be an electrical problem and have nothing to do with the engine. Along that same line would be a defective gauge.
The exact value of a Winchester model 120 Ranger 12 gauge shotgun with Winchoke is actually dependent upon a number of factors. Some of these factors would be the age and condition of the shotgun.
A potential bad gauge or sender unit in the tank would cause it to read full all the time.
The Ranger was built between 1912-1936, yours would have been built around 1927.
Did you ever find out why? My son just ran out of fuel with the same situation.
The Model 5000 would be a Stevens and the Ranger name was sold by Montgomery Ward. This model was made c. 1923-1932.
