Gas gauge needle should rise to full tank after you fill it up emidiately after you turn the ignition key.  |
Hi,
Sorry, but that's inaccurate. The problem is not an uncalibrated gauge, it is a shifted overflow tube in the tank. If this tube shifts, it will interfere with the proper movement of the float for the fuel sender. The fix is to pull the tube from the tank, zip-tie it in place to keep it from migrating toward the fuel sender float, and reinstall. Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
