Re: fuel gauge
How's it. Check the soldering at the base of the needle. This sometimes breaks and it is a very tricky thing to fix because the two different metals don't like being joined together.

Re: fuel gauge
If you unplug the plug on the tank and you short the two wires, does the gauge go to full scale? If it does, it neabs your wiring is fine.
Check the spade lugs inside the plastic plug as they sometimes get corroded. Some models gas another plug joint inside the car around the centre foot well area infront of the rear seats.
