Update,
Long story short. Fuel gauge has worked but wasn’t accurate for about 2 years.
New passenger side fuel level sensor, which was tested and installed a couple of months ago when I installed a larger fuel line for E85, was showing a resistance value of 52 ohms when it should have been around 160 ohms with a full tank. I removed it from the car and it performed perfectly when bench tested. Once reinstalled, it produced the 162 ohms it should. After reconnecting all electrical parts, I turned on the key, and the gauge on the dash read correctly (full).
Since the new sensor was installed in the proper orientation, my guess is this means either the new unit is somehow defective, or, the crossover line inside the tank is loose and interfering with the float. This would explain why the gas gauge has not been accurate for some time now. Im going to put things back together and see if it continues to operate correctly. If it happens again, I’ll gently remove ring and peak in with a bore scope to see if line is touching float.
Thank you very much Redfirepearlgt for your knowledge and help.
