Ok so I'm having an issue with a rogue fuel gauge. I filled the tank, only for the gauge to then read between 2/3 and 3/4 upon start up, so I thought the float on the sender may be stuck; after using the approx amount of fuel the gauge caught up and worked fine.
Next 2 fill ups and the gauge can't decide what to show - it has dropped in increments of 1/8 down to 0 upon start up then crept back up to full during a drive, or even moved up and down throughout the entire tank - however it never shows more than what should be in the tank. Because of this I have been deterred away from a stuck float I think....
Has anyone else ever encountered this or have any ideas on the cause or possible rectification of it?
