I have an EB Falcon and its fuel gauge suddenly started to go over full then drops down to empty. Temp gauge is fine. We have a Haynes manual that gives basic info, but we need to know if it is likely to be the float in the tank or the fuel gauge sender unit. Something with pictures that actually show where it is would help too. The back window leaked and sent water into the boot so thought that could have affected it but we found it quite dry even though the area is dusty and tape etc old and gummy. Last question: Is there likely to be a specialist in gauges in Perth? Many thanks ...

the unit is in the tank that you need to check,when you get unit out you will need to check the resistance,with the wires 1 plug is for fuel sender and the other is for fuel pump.
