Sending unit

[keifer1122]

ok so i put a new fuel tank sending unit in cause when i bought the truck the old one did not work.But the new one i got worked for 1 day then went out. do they go out like this alot, is it some sorta ground i hit when changin it out aloud it to work then lost ground? because there were a couple of days that i would turn on the car with the old sending unit in and it would work until i shut the car off then it would go for months without doing it. im goin to my dads today to get the chilton manual and checking the plug with a volt meter
