Re: out of gas

I got mine at Classic Parts for about $50 + shipping. I did the same thing you did on my dual tank 83 C20, which is why I always advise everyone with a fuel gauge problem to change the fuel gauge first - easier and cheaper than changing the sending unit(s).

Re: out of gas

Check the ohms first on cluster to see if indeed it is the gauge.
