    hey man, gas gauge probably does work, just a bad f1 fuse in the Baffle Pick-Up! i fixed mine with a 2$ fuse. really easy. time consuming, but easyto fix. i fix my 1996 & 2000 gtx with the same problem. In the process of restoring a 97 xp so, ill eventually do the same to my xp

      I pulled the fuel sending unit and repaired the fuse on circuit board and replaced all fuel lines and gauge works great now

    If you do not change your selector valve what's a good one design for the new fuel and change all of those old gray fuel lines also do a pressure check and check your tank valve you will fry that motor I have been doing these for over twenty years you don't want to miss anything otherwise you will be buying a motor and another one and another one and another one

    Make sure you change all your fuel lines do a pressure fuel test do all the necessary things or it will just fry the motor

      Changed all fuel lines and pulled out the pump and fixed that fuse that blows so the fuel sender would work
