unstable Fuel Level Sensor drives me mad...

'97 Viper GTS, 25'ooo miles

A few weeks ago my Nightmare started with running out of Fuel 30ft away from our own Gas Station...

Fuel Level "should" be arround 1/5, but it was'nt.

Later the Instrument dropped whe i was accelerating or drove uphill and raised whe i slowed down or drove downhill... but the &%ç%/% Needle was just moving 1/16".



Now i changed the Fuel Level Sensor... the Problem is nearly the same.
But now the Needle is moving between the actual Fuel Level and Full.

Any Idea?

I have noticed huge diferences in guage readings depending on if the car is going uphill or downhill if that helps. it jumps around a lot.

The old Sensor never did that until it was definitly broken.

Actually i reset my tripmeter at every fillup... like in my musclecar days.

Dont thrust this thing anymore.
