Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem #1

Fuel gauge was showing nearly empty and the low fuel light was on. I placed 3. 6 gallons of fuel into the tank, and the gauge showed that the fuel level was a slight bit under 1/2 tank. Vehicle has a 12 gallon gas tank; fuel gauge was showing an inaccurate level.

Other Fuel System problem #2

Throttle stuck in the closed position. This happened several more times over the next couple years. Sometimes at highway speeds and sometimes at slow speeds. Most often in warmer weather.
