Anyone know where I can get a replacement coolant reservoir for a 1990 Suburban v2500???
Mine has a small leak I have tried to repair.

At least that's what I assume it is
This truck essential sat on and off for 23yrs
So I have been dealing with dry rot... And a plethora of other issues from lack I use.

Question:
Fuel gauge doesn't register a full tank when it's full.
It registers a 3/8 of a tank when full and goes down hill from there
Any thoughts?
Suggestions?
I'm guessing it's not the sending unit...

First and easiest is check the ground. Blue or black or purple wire going from top of tank to the top of the frame. Then I'm guessing it is the sending unit.
