What could be wrong... but in saying that i haven't got a chance to go have a look at the second fuel tank on the left hand side...

any suggestions??
It is either the actual gauge in the gauge cluster, or the sensor that is inside the gas tank that is part of the Fuel Pump and Sender. You can get part for inexpensive if you don't mind used parts that are guaranteed to work or do your homework on new prices.
