i pulled my boat out of storage from a 5 year sleep after blowing the motor, removed the fuel tank and dumped it out and rinsed it our with new gas a few times just to be sure, dropped off to the mechanic with a new motor and put a half a tank in it on the way over to his place. i turned the key to the acc position and the gauge was workng just fine. picked it up and it wasn't working. it was getting a signal or at least power because the needle would jump a little when the key was activated but not reading where it should be. i put another few gallons in it to see if it would go up. i even replace the fuel gauge (because i was replacing all the gauges anyway) and it still isn't reading correctly.
i know there is at least a quarter of a tank in it and it reads E all the time now.
any ideas ??? thanks.
