Well, you already have it figured out.

I guess the aftermarket pump you are running is a reason for no replies.

The tank gauge sender is attached to the electric pump in the tank. You may as well replace both of them at the same time... same goes for the rear tank.

As for pulling the bed... I've never seen a bed pulled for tank work on any of my personal trucks... I'm on my 4th F-series truck, and will never go with another brand, NEVER!

My current truck has a bad gauge sender in the front tank. It also has low pressure at the engine, compared to the rear tank, which had lower pressure at first, but after several tanks being run through it, has come up to normal pressures. I'm pretty sure the previous owner, who bought it new, never ran the back tank very much, judging by the bonked spots around the filler opening where someone bonked the truck with the filler nozzle.

I'm going to leave the front tank empty for now, and get the pump and sender. I've got the plastic tank (!) and will change out the pump this fall when it's cooler outside.
