76 k10 cluster

How much would it be for an all new working gas gauge or a whole new cluster for my truck I am afraid mine is broken or the sensor?

Edit: I am thinking its the sensor for the left tank that is out. Is it easier to replace the pumps and the tanks?

The pump should be on the block for your 76. Just a sending unit in the tank. Does the guage peg to full when switched to that side or ?

On the right tank it is accurate while on the left side its the same every time...

Well that eliminates the gauge and the wiring from the tank selector switch to the gauge. The issue is either in the tank selector switch, the sending unit in that tank, or the wiring between the tank and the switch. I"d crawl under there and check out the wiring going to that tank first.
