Will check later tonight with my ohm meter....with sending unit wire disconnected the gauge is in the 3 o'clock position.

That is normal. I suspect you may have a faulty fuel sending unit. If you ground the sending unit wire at the tank your fuel gauge should read empty. If it does read empty this confirms your gauge is good & your sending unit has gone bad. Ground the sending unit wire at the tank and report back.
