Yes, that would be the sending unit in the fuel tank (I've had that problem too)
Unless you have some friends with mechanical skills, you can either shell out the bucks to have a shop replace it, or you can fill your tank and use the trip meter on the dash to track your fuel usage.

nicely the floater on the gasoline pump could are starting to be caught the final time the tank become finished, and if thats the case i could top off the tank totally and then see if it starts to paintings back. If the gauge broke it may in all hazard be greater useful to get a sparkling one fairly then restoration it as that is going to in all hazard value around the comparable, approximately $a hundred-$2 hundred i could think of. additionally in case you do fill it up each and every of how reset your miles counter and verify out working it as long as available till its notably plenty out of gasoline after which you will locate what number miles on common you are able to flow earlier its out of gasoline, only verify you maintain checking on the counter(that's the cheap way out), I a undecided precisely how plenty it may value yet an estimate could be a pair hundred for changing the pump to approximately possibly $3 hundred-$4 hundred pending on what pump you have as some can get notably high priced because it fairly is an entire unit meaning whether the pump works and the floaters undesirable youll could desire to substitute the finished ingredient yet you may get fortunate and be waiting to easily restoration the floater I cant be optimistic as i'm no longer attentive to which one your vehicle has. reliable good fortune and need all works out nicely, Tony

it is a possibility that it can be the float. you would need to remove the gas tank and remove the fuel pump from the tank. i had to replace one once. the pump might be a little pricey but call around and find out the price of one. also check your wires and fuses just in case

It could be the float is stuck or an open circuit in the wire going from the sending unit to the gauge. (bad fuse, broken wire, corroded connection on the sending unit, etc.)

There is a little rheostat on the floatation device in your fuel tank connected to your fuel pump... If it may have been over filled it might have got caught on something but I've never seen that... I may just be a fuse.... Or perhaps it's that little rheostat...

You can always go to an auto store and ask, or get the Chilton's manual for your car. DO NOT ask a mechanic, though. Some will take advantage, and you could spend more than what it's worth.
