We just had the same problem on a 90 Aerostar. Proved sending unit and guage were ok. There is a small ciruit board attached to the instrument cluster (it is an amplifier for the gas guage) with a single Allen screw holding it to the instrument cluster. Where the four contacts were soldered to the little board you could see cracks in the solder. Resoldered the contacts and the guage works perfect. hope this helps?

How can you troubleshoot the fuel gauge on a 1993 Ford Explorer when after filling the tank the gauge slowly drops to E even though it is not empty?
Most likely, there is a small hole in the plastic float in your gas tank's sending unit. As the float fills with fuel,it sinks to the bottom of the tank and sends an "empty" signal to the gas gauge. You're gonna need a new fuel pump. Scott
