i am confused with mine i saw somewhere it said we have like 12 or 22 gal. tanks but from totally empty like ran out of gas i can only get 10 gallons in it which averages about 160 mpg which seems crappy for a reg cab short bed v6 truck. O and my gauge only works from above F to half at half i run out totally

95 Dekota gas gauge not working at all
Mine stays at E all the time. I have heard that it was a sending unit and I have heard that it may be grounding out. I also heard that it can get stuck and need to be adjusted by hand. Before I drop my tank, i would like to hear from others about this issue and how hard it is to do the repair job

I drained the tank and dropped it. Not hard to do as the tanks are not very heavy when empty. Look on the circuit board on the side of the pump to see if the traces are wore out. Also you can test the sending unit without pulling the pump.
