Cliffy,
it read FUEL000 last time I ran this. Will run it again to see if that's changed. But that tells me there is a short. I checked under the dash but am a little lost on how to trace a wire from the dash to the fuel tank... I don't know where it runs, ha ha.
Thanks for the continued help...

Cliff,
Just a heads up question in case. If I put the resistors on and the gauge works (full and empty at the specified ranges) then the problem would be the float because it is sending the proper resistance? If the gauge still doesn't work, I have to trace the wire and find the short?
Thanks again.

Yup..
If with the resistors the gauge operates as it should then everything from the connector forward is OK, the problem is from the connector back toward the tank. Check for pinched/frayed/broken wires etc, or the sending unit is bad, float stuck/"waterlogged"/etc...

Well I assuming I did the test right, I found out that I have a wiring issue somewhere.... So now I don't know if I'll just live with it, or try tracing that wire... Since I had the entire interior out, it is very possible I clipped it/pinched somewhere along the line last winter and it just took some driving to bounce it around and render it useless..... Guess I'll check the easy areas first and see if anything comes up....
