Spit listers,

My first posting to the new Spit list -

My gasoline gauge only works a little. When I fill the tank, it reads a
little less than 1/2 full. It rapidly slides down to "E" from there - by
the time I've driven 50 miles on my new tank of gasoline, it says it's
empty. I work around this by zeroing the trip odometer each time I fill
up, but it'd be nice if it worked properly. Is there something wrong
with the float? How does one replace the float if that is the problem?

Thanks in advance!
