It wouldn't hurt to change the sending unit while you have it out. I changed
mine when I replaced the tank so I didn't have to deal with it later.
You should be able to get the tank out between the exhaust by unbolting the
rear hangers and pushing it out of the way as you bring it down. If it
You may want to just check your grounds. When mine stopped working, I
removed my sending unit and moved the sending unit up and down and had a
friend look at the gauge. It read perfectly, letting me know that it was
just the grounds. Unless the sending unit is real old, or you got lots o
$$$.

Mine is erratic even after adding a ground. How can you check it on the
bench? I have a spare.

The fact that you are reading past full points to a bad ground and I would
test that by grounding the sending unit wire directly to the tank ground if
your gauge doesn't go to empty then fix the ground. If it goes to empty then
it is an open circuit in the sending unit.
The easiest way
Larry, Also remember as the fuel sloshes around the tank while you drive,
the gauge will go up and down a little. If it is erratic to the point of
grounding out, then you definitely have a ground problem that needs to be
fixed better.

Seems that when I dropped the tank on my 69 I pulled the sending unit out and
tested it with an Ohm meter and found a dead spot in it . Think I learned
about how to test the sending unit from the Team Chevelle forum. but would go
the ground test route first and see what happens. Bear in mind
