Unhappy Fuel guage reads empty

I just purchased a motor home with the F53 chassy and the 460 engine.

The problem, is that the fuel guage does not work. It reads zero.

What are the diagnostic steps?

How the heck did this come back on top?

Anyway, if you are interested in the answer, it was the old fuel pump problem. The float filled with gas and went to the bottom of the tank!
