I had that problem with my car ounce. If you undo the connector in the trunk or 
just behind the bumper and attach it to ground you should see gas gauge move if 
it is working. They supply the gas gauge with + and the wire going to the tank 
is -. It is variable resistor the more fuel you have the more your gas gauge 
reads (better ground from the tank).

  Subject: [Chevelle-list] fuel guage test


  Hey guys was just wondering if there is a electrial test to tell if a fuel 
guage was faulty or if it is the sending unit. It worked fine last fall and 
just got the car out and its no working. I cleaned the ground wire and metal on 
the body it attaches to and still dont work   Thanks in advance   Finally 
spring is here in Mich sure was a LONG winter    thanks   Steve
