Fuel Gauge Troubles! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My Dad and I are having troubles with are trucks. My dad has a 1986 C10 LWB with the single tank, and I have an 1982 C10 LBW with dual tanks.

Both of our trucks sat in the backyard for a while, but just got them running again for the winter.

Here is the problem......

Fill both tanks (on my 82) and filled the tank on my dads '86. The fuel tank is obviously full on both trucks. The Gauge(s) read just a little over the 1/4 mark on the fuel gauge?

We have tried different gauges, checked wires, connections, etc. There has to be something that we overlooked.

Please help us, were taking the '86 out of town this tuesday on a 2,000 Mile Trip.

THANK YOU!!!
