Re: Fuel gauge going crazy
I recently removed my pump/sending unit. Test with OHM meter showed intermittent readings due to wear in the plastic float hinge. I removed the brass hinge pin and used solder to slightly increase its dimension to take up the wear in the plastic. Retest with meter corrected problem. This repair was done on a 2000 Buick La Sabre with pump access in the trunk, 1.5 hr. Sure saved a lot of money.lol

It has been one year since I did this repair and the fuel gauge works perfect. lol
