I pulled the plug off the sender, and checked for power. There is power there. Does that indicate that its most likely the sender thats not working?

You verified there is power going into the sender. Now check if voltage is coming out with the car running. If yes, wiring or gauge fault. If no, sender fault.

Thanks 86Olds442. I'll check that. Also, did you notice where the needle is sitting?. Is that an indication that the gauge might be shot?
