still having gas gauge issue
i am having the gas gauge issue where after i fill up, the needle goes to empty then sort of starts to work after driving a little while.
did 2 treatments with bg-44. poured in empty tank then filled up so it would flow to other tank. also did this with techron.
do i need to do something else at this point? it does not seem the sensor is getting cleaned.
thanks.

In addition to following 8Vette7's advice, you might try a different gas station too, if you haven't already. I had the same problem a few years ago and tried the standard remedies without success until I switched from a nearby Chevron station to Shell. Probably a combination of things, but I haven't had a problem since.

If you have a shell near you there gas has the highest amount cleaner in it right out of the pump pair that with at least a 20 oz bottle of Techron every fill up and you will see a difference.
