'72 C-10 Gas Gauge
The Gas Gauge on my '72 C-10 used to always stay pretty steady, but lately it is fluctuating for some reason. It can bounce back and forth from 1/2 to 1/4 in the matter of seconds. Trying to figure out what is going on. Do the tanks have baffles in them? Unless it's some kind of electrical problem. Let me know what y'all think.
Thanks

Re: '72 C-10 Gas Gauge
Don't know if they have baffles, but I expect that they may. I'd be checking the electrical connections, personally. If you don't have service and repair manuals, you can download them for free, here- manuals for maintenance and for overhaul are available. Be sure to get both.

The stock '67 - '72 tanks do not have any baffles in them.

Re: '72 C-10 Gas Gauge
More than likely the sending unit is starting to go. It's ez to pull and test it.
