if your fuel guage is not working properly it is more than likely your fuel level sending unit which is in the gas tank of your vehicle, to repair, yo must purchase a new sending unit, drop the tank down and out of your car, by disconnecting the fuel and evap lines along with the filler neck and vent tube, and last the 2 bolts holding the straps, then replace the sending unit and bolt it all back together

Can you repair a fuel gauge problem on 2007 chvy truck without changing the fuel pump?

I'm NOT 100% sure on this answer but do this and we will find out. If you are having a fuel gauge problem then CALL a Chevy parts house and ask them if they sell a FUEL LEVELING SENSOR by itself. If they do then buy it and install it on the fuel sending unit that is inside of the fuel tank and that will fix your gauge for awhile. Overtime the sulfur in the gas COATS the fuel leveling sensor and the gauge goes crazy. You may have to buy the WHOLE fuel pump sending unit just to fix your gauge. That will be A costly repair. Like I said, Don't know if they sell it by itself or not.


How do you repair a fuel gauge on a 1998 dodge ram truck after the gas tank and fuel pump was replaced and now the fuel gauge does not work?

The gas gauge and fuel pump are on two separate circuits tand both go inside the gas tank. The gas gauge usesf a float that moves a resistor according to fuel level. Gas gauges. When you experiewnce the gas gauge not working at all I would look for a disconection external to the tank first. If you cna send six volts from the tank sender to the gauge this should cause the gauge to read. If it does then you know the problem is with the sending unit and it must be removed from the tank to repair or replace.
