Your gas tank may not be reading fuel levels correctly due to a faulty fuel gauge, a malfunctioning fuel sending unit, or issues with the vehicle's electrical system. Additionally, sediment or debris in the tank can interfere with the float mechanism, leading to inaccurate readings. If the problem persists, it may be best to have a professional diagnose the issue.

How do you replace fuel level sensor?
Empty fuel from tank. Drop fuel tank. Sender is on inside of tank on front. Float could have pin hole causing false reading.

How do you fuel gauge work in car?
The fuel gauge gets a reading from the fuel level sender in your fuel tank. There is a float attached to a lever floating on the fuel. The lever moves ( as the fuel is depleted or refilled) along a variable resistor in the sending unit. The guage detects the variance in resistance, telling you how much fuel is in the tank.

Hi, Probably 95% of the time, or more, the problem with a fuel gauge not reading correctly is the fuel level sensor. This sensor is located in the fuel tank and that tank will have to be drained and dropped to get to the sensor. Sorry about that. Good Luck
How does a Chevy truck's dual fuel tanks operate?
On vehicles with dual tanks, the front tank is the main and the rear tank is the auxiliary. The main fuel balance pump supplies fuel to the fuel injection unit. The low pressure, about 32 kPa (7 psi) fuel balance pump is used only to transfer fuel from the auxiliary tank to the main tank in order to balance the fuel levels in both tanks. As the main tank level drops to about 25 percent below the level in the auxiliary tank, the fuel sender and balance module energizes the fuel pump relay. This pumps the fuel from the auxiliary tank to the main tank. When the level in the main tank reaches a level slightly higher than the level in the auxiliary tank, or the auxiliary tank is empty, the module de-energizes the balance pump relay and fuel pump. Any malfunction in either of the fuel gauge circuits will disable the system and the fuel will not be transferred from the auxiliary fuel tank to the main fuel tank.
Where is the fuel level sensor located on a 1999 Subaru Forester?
Fuel level sensor is in the tank with the fuel.
Why would the fuel gauge slowly go to empty when you apply the brakes?
Because the gas in being forced to one side of the tank and the sensor that reads the fuel level is reading a lower level as gas gets sloshed around.
How do you replace the fuel pump on an 1987 Chevy G20?
You drop the fuel tank! The fuel lines go to a round thing in the middle. You have to rotate the round thing and then it will lift out of the tank. The fuel pump and fuel level indicator will be right there in front of your face. I did this once i hope you dont have a lot of fuel in the tank as it could be quite heavy!
