Chances are the float gauge is the problem. It is attached to a rheostat that is nothing more than a resister. Often times they go bad. The bad part is it is part of the fuel pump and the tank needs removed.
I realize you would like an estimate. For the pump and labor, I would estimate around 400.00. However, before the pump would actually be replaced, I would recommend the mechanic check the rheostat to make sure that is the problem and not a broken or corroded wire somewhere in the vehicle.
Let me know if you have other questions.
