The guage on the dash works. It shows "Full", then suddenly it shows "half", then at the pump you get fuel within 1 gallon of "empty". Not good. Do not trust fuel supply at all.

Suspect the tank sending unit?? Any prior experience will be appreciated. 27 Gallon fiberglass tank. Easily accessible. Looks like maybe 6 screws into a round mounting disc on tank top. 2 electrical leads connectors. Anybody traveled this road before??

Mack, probably the wiper on the sending unit from sittin' up.  Also, I believe you are under warranty.  We will be making calls your way in the next couple of weeks.  I'll call you and stop by and have a look.

Cat,, in case we miss each other can you tell me what to order to replace the unit? I have looked on line, and it looks to me like a pretty standard unit that goes for about $40. Vaguely reminds me of an old copper toilet tank fill valve ??

Ain't gonna cruise this year guessing about towing insurance for running outta gas...
