I just replaced both fuel tanks and sending units on my '84 K1500. I solved my fuel delivery issues, but now a new problem has arisen. I put six gallons in the driver's side tank and the guage read a little less than half a tank (this would technically be close to correct since it's a 16 gallon tank.) After a little bit of driving, the guage didn't move a whole lot. I put 3 more gallons of gas in it to see what would happen, and the needle just moved closer to empty. It is almost as if the guage is working backwards. Does anyone know why it could acting like this? Thanks.
