Fuel guage does not work
I have searched and have found nothing. I have an 84 gsl-se and the gas guage is pegged in the empty spot. It has never moved. Were should I check for corrosion? And are there any connectors under the carpet that could be corroded? I am so tired of the broken gas guage.

Disconnect the wires that attach to the sending unit and after cleaning them, short them together with the key in the "on" position while having someone observe the gas gauge. If the guage doesn't move, the problem is either in the wiring or the guage itself. If it does, connect the wires back up to the sending unit and see if the gauge works. If it doesn't, the problem is in the sending unit itself.

when you say "lower the tank"... how major is that procedure? I know I have a leak somewhere, and that the guage isn't working... I'm gonna replace the entire tank at some point, but if I can fix the guage for now, that would be good.
Basically what I'm asking is : is it a home job?
