fuel guage problem
Check for an intermittent connection on the heater fan circuit from the fusebox on. Fusebox connections are notorious for having thermal intermittents.
Pull your instrument cluster and remove the nuts that make the connections to the guages. clean the copper conductors on the flex circuit with a little copper cleaner (rinse thoroughly) and let it dry. Clean the contacts on the nuts. Smear a little silicone dielectric on the nuts and put them back on. While you are there clean the rest of the connections (bulbs, connector) using the same methods. Replace all the parts and put it back in.
Good luck!
