Subject:      gas gauge doesn't work
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello,
My fuel gauge on my 80 Westy stops working after about three quarters of
a tank.  When it's full, it reads full, but when it starts getting
lower, it goes all the way to 'empty.'  At first, months ago, it worked
fine down to a quarter tank, then kaput.  Now, though, it's going
'kaput' at 3/4tank and I ran out of gas on the way to class.
Time to fix this.
Any help on what's wrong, or what to check, replace, etc would be
greatly appreciated :)
Thank you,
Chris Gkikas
