If your float is stuck or gone out, dropping the tank is the only way to fix it. As I posted in the link Alan pointed out, I was able to get the connection off my float with the tank still in the truck - which is not easy to do - but I checked it and it shows my sending unit is sending a full signal to the dash. Problem found, now just need to get it fixed.
