Fuel Gauge

EDIT:

Turns out its not the fuel gauge...Basically the thing just keeps going up like its eternally full. I read something about the fuel pump floater screwing up. Exactly how does it screw up?

The float on my S13 has always been a little touchy. Right after I installed my Walbro it never read above 3/4 on the gauge... then one day I played around with it a bit, and it started working pefectly. Lately it's been doing it again, but always reads accurately below 3/4. I just live with it.

Well I pulled the pump, and I forgot that the car got a GTR pump from a R32. Turns out the whole pump assembly and sender was swapped over. Anybody on the forum running GTR pumps? GTR pumps dont seem to have a floater like on the S-chassis. I think the sending unit is this white hollow tube. Trying to see now if I just need to swap that out or the whole pump assembly.
