Question Another Fuel Gauge ?
My Fuel gauge shows full when I first fill the truck. After about 10 miles it moves to 3/4. After 20 it moves to empty. If it is the sender, should I lift the bed or drop the tank to fix it. Thanks

It is the sender. Mine was doing exactly the same thing... I dropped the tank, cleaned it out while it was out.. all is well now.

Or cut a neat trap-door in the bed-floor.
