RE: Fuel Gauge
Afflict, just my two cents worth, Ken is right about the fuel sending unit. Another possiblity. On my 85 XJ-6, when I first got it, the button on the dash that changes from left to right tank had one of the wires disconnected. Once reconnected, the gauge worked as it should.

RE: Fuel Gauge
My 85 XJ6 fuel guage went to empty last week as I was driving along. Neither tank would read at all. As I continued to drive, the guage stated to read, slowly and not smoothly. After reaching about the right amount it dropped to empty and stayed their.
I tried looking in the manuels for a wiring diagram, but mine did not have color codes in it. I had no luck trouble shooting it.
Today I filled the tanks and wrote down the mileage, planning to drive 250 miles and just refill again. When I started the car the guage worked fine on both tanks.
I will drive it enough to burn out some gas and see if it acts up again.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve
