Computer problem
2001 Chevy Tahoe 105000 miles

This could possibly be a computer problem or my husband suspects the fuel pump is going out. So, this just started happening on Saturday. We filled up the gas tank, then when we came to a stop light the gage dropped all the way down and the low fuel light came on. Once we started driving again the gage shot back up. Over the past couple of days it would show 1/2 tank, 1/4 tank, empty tank, etc... just kind of all over the place. Any ideas???

Chances are it is the float gauge in the tank. The problem is it is part of the fuel pump. You will need to remove the tank to access it and check it.
