Agree with Ben ^^^^ I was thinking instrument panel would be my next stop....then connectors on the top of the tank to the sender. If the floors rust so could the wires here.

my 200 and 300 both did this both times it was the sender unit there is a small braided wire goes between the moving and fixed parts of the sender this will be broken/loose, i fixed mine by using a piece of braid cut from some old coax cable
