I have a full fuel tank and the gauge will not register. Any ideas?

First, welcome to the forum.

You're dealing with one of the following:
bad sending unit
bad gauge
bad ground
bad wiring
blown fuse
Most likely a bad sending unit. Start there with a multi meter and work your way up to the dash.

Found the problem. It was a loose ground wire on sending unit. It was a pain to get to but fuel level gauge is now working. Thanks for the help!

You're welcome. Now all I need to do is get around to fixing the one on my 230 :)
