ALWAYS CHECK YOUR FUSES, OR OTHER INOPERABLE THINGS THAT HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME
REMOVE SENDER WIRE AT FUEL TANK
GROUND IT TO THE FRAME/ A GOOD GROUND
TURN ON KEY
DOES FUEL GAUGE RISE FROM EMPTY TO FULL?
IF SO, TURN OFF KEY
UN-GROUND THE SENDER WIRE
IF THIS WAS THE CASE, MOST LIKELY THE GAUGE IS GOOD-----AND THE SENDER INSIDE THE TANK IS BAD
OR IF NOTHING HAPPENED, THE SENDER WIRE IS BROKEN ALONG THE WAY, OR THE GAUGE COULD BE BAD
