If you spell it correctly, the light will go out. F U E L

j/k. The sending unit on the pump is bad. Its in the tank. Under the carpet is a square panel with 4 screws and a wire harness going through a grommet in the center of the panel. Thats the pump access panel. Get a Hanyes or Chilton manual and replace the pump.

Got the exact same problem w/ my 88GTU, and have troubleshooted. It is the sending unit, not the pump. If I had a spare I'd replace it, but I don't. Knock on wood, at least my fuel gauge still works.

If your running n/a theres no reason to replace it. It may also be your idiot cluster screwing up on you, are you S4?
