Unhappy Fuel tank & window switch

Hi, I have tow question that maybe you all can help me with.

1. My front fuel tank does not read right on the guage. The rear one works fine. The front only goes to about half tank even when full and it takes forever to get to half.

2. 1996 F350 crew cab 4x4 psd. I can roll down all windows from drivers side but only drivers side will roll up. All windows work fine on there own switch. Help please.....

1. You probably have a front tank fuel sender problem. I have pulled several old PU tanks before and took apart. The unit is in fuel tank. Not real hard to fix but can be horrible if you don't know what you are doing.

2. Your driver door window switches have a bad contact point, loose wire, or wiring plug corrosion (contact). Take one out write down the part number, clean it up, wiggle it, smack it around, then put back on. If it will roll up now you are in business. Do the others too. If it does work it will only probably last a while. Order the replacement window switches (part #) and put on when you can. Might try a juck yard if you're in a money or time pinch.
