Fuel gauge

The fuel gauge on my '93 has stopped working all of a sudden. Is there a fuse or a switch that's gone bad or is it time to replace the sending unit?
Also, is there somewhere that I can get a fuel tank that's larger than 33 gal for this thing?
Thanks,
Brian

Forgot to add that the Bronco still runs fine, just no indication on the guage. It stays on "E".

The YELLOW/WHITE wire from the in-tank sending unit feeds the gauge. If it quit suddenly, I'd be leaning towards a dead sender. But it could be damaged wiring. Fuse #17 (10 amp in the dashboard fuseblock near the top center) feeds the fuel gauge and just about all the other guages in the instrument cluster with their power so unless you have lost all of 'em, its not likley to be the fuse.
