Default Bouncing Fuel Gauge
My fuel gauge bounces back and forth alot while driving, as much as an 1/8 to a 1/4. Is this normal or should I be looking at a new sending unit and or gauge. It is on a 75. Thanks for any help.

Somewhat normal. Mine does the same thing and I replaced the sending unit a few years ago.

Aftre reading the post I am leaning towards the gauge. When sitting at idle it reads accurate.

Thanks for the info guys.
