The fuel gauge in my 66 recently started acting weird, basically drops too fast, and no....not due to my right foot. For example, a few weeks ago it showed 1/4 full when I filled the tank which then showed full on startup. Was surprised that it used a 1/4 tank on the 10 mile drive home. Drove it about 40 miles over the next couple weeks and again down to 1/4 tank. But when I filled the tank again it only took 4 gallons which is what I would have expected for that much driving, gauge now showing full again, then dropped another 1/4 on the same 10 mile drive home.
Does this sound more like a gauge or sender/float issue? Both sender and gauge are original.
Thanks,
Dave
