If you have strange fuel readouts ...maybe for empty, maybe for being full & top bars are not indicating ...and maybe if you have intermittent fuel problems ...or all of these ...you MAY have dirty connections inside the connector that leads from the tank to the main wiring ...that plug/connector carries the fuel pump connection & the fuel gauge connection. These items are fairly sensitive to minor connection corrosion.
