1. get the sending unit (i got mine from a seller on EBAY)... 2. remove fuel cap from vehicle. 3. verify fuel level is 1/8 tank or lower (tank is 25 pounds when empty and a gallon of liquid is 2 pounds...) 4. using a drip pan for leaking fuel, remove 3 fuel lines from front of FUEL TANK. 5. locate 3 metal retaining straps for fuel tank and remove the bolts. 6. allow the tank to lower gently about 2 or 3 inches and looking between tank and vehicle you see a few plugs, remove the wiring. 7. remove the filler neck hose and the overflow hose from the rear of the tank. 8. now take the tank down all the way and slide it out from under the vehicle. 9. slowly unscrew "retaining ring" on top of tank holding fuel pump and sending unit into tank. 10. lift entire unit up being careful not to bend sending unit FLOAT ROD. 11. float rod easily unsnaps, all wiring of sending unit easily unsnaps, and actual unit unsnaps and slides down. 12. installation is reversal order of this procedure.

The gas gauge in the Chevy Venture in stuck in the full posititon?

If the gas gauge in your Chevy Venture is stuck in the full position, it could be due to a faulty fuel level sender, a wiring issue, or a malfunctioning instrument cluster. First, check the connections to the fuel level sender for any loose or damaged wires. If the wiring looks good, it may be necessary to replace the fuel level sender or the entire instrument cluster. Consulting a mechanic or referring to the owner's manual for troubleshooting steps may also help diagnose the issue.
