1986 f150. Fuel gauge reds empty and I still have about half a tank of gas. Dual tanks. Does the same for either tank. Always has but now I have new in tank pumps and sending units and no change. Whats up?
Take the cluster loose and start testing with a multimeter...

LOL! And this from a guy looking for a 8 sided socket! Just kiddin ya FE. I haven't taken the thing apart yet. It works now but it reads empty at a half tank. Kind of lookin for advice on what to check first. Just a push start to get me going! Thanks guys, I appreciate any help.
if it reads empty at half then you likely have rheostat issues in the tank or the voltage to the gauge is too low. Check the gauge for a good contact to the motherboard.
