my fuel gauge only works some times or when i hit major bump, so does that mean that their's still broken contact in the sending unit or is it the gauge it's self?

each means something different but i don't remember which. one is bad ground and i think other is sending unit.

start with the ground wire and go from there. also check for proper power getting to the sender.

There should be a thread or something on here, try searching. I had a similar problem, but forgot what each means as well (empty/full.) I just got a new sending unit from AutoZone for like $70.
