Its been a while but I think when I fixed one of my old gas gauge wires I soldered it back on.

Re: gas tank and guage ?
I took a very small drill bit and drilled a hole thru the flat part (where the ground wire connects to). I then connected a small wire eye loop to the end of the wire and screwed it thru the hole and it works great.
