the fuel gauges themselves rarly fail. I have that same bronco and it was the sending unit on the pump, i went to ford and got the complete pump,sender,float assembly for $120. most auto parts stores dont sell this complete setup.
when i pulled it out i found the sender of course bad and the float had fuel in it.
If you unplug the wire from on top of the tank and ground it out the gauge should move. this will tell ya. make sure you have little to no fuel in the tank if you do have to drop it. the job isnt bad just a bit time consuming.
