What would cause a gas gauge not to work in a 1997 Chevrolet pickup?

There is only a few things that can cause this kind of failure.
Faulty gage.
Severed or shorted wire
Stuck float on the sending unit (The pump and Sending Unit are in one piece in the fuel tank itself)
Or a fault in the sending unit itself.
If the gauge is intermittent, call your closest Chevrolet Dealer and ask about the Chevron fuel treatment. GM carries a part number for it. Teckron (sp?) is the additive that cleans the sending unit and usually makes it work (again)!
