Senders in the tank .Very common problem in the 202's and 210's.I think there are 2 senders in the tank,both should be replaced.

I got a fix

One time I accidentally backed into a concrete pylon holding up a light in a parking lot and after that, my gas gauge worked again. Must have whacked something loose.
Too bad I messed up the back end too. Yeah I feel really really stupid.
