My fuel gauge is not accurate as I once ran out of gas when the aftermarket gauge showed 1/2 tank. I don't know if the sending unit is bad or the gauge is the problem. Question is, How do I access the fuel sending unit and how can I test it?
Correct, and sometimes on the back of the instrument cluster there is erosion and damage.Check your wiring inside the trunk on the left hand side. It's aluminum and often breaks. Repair one spot and another breaks. Well known issue.
i bought an in tank unit for my 81 malibu several years ago from this forum for a project. paid 20 bucks plus shipping. it's a feed and return line type. sold the car and never used the sending unit. i'll give you the same deal if interested.My fuel gauge is not accurate as I once ran out of gas when the aftermarket gauge showed 1/2 tank.
