another successful evening
ever since i bought the truck the fuel gauge was stuck on Empty and i finally decided to investigate the situation
so i dropped the tank and everything looked normal
so i pulled off the wire heading to the sending unit (which should be a positive wire) and it was coming up grounded...then i just had to find out where
after tracing the wire from the fuse block back i finally found the short to ground where it was pinched on the frame above the rear spring.
so i cut out and replaced the broken wire and BAM!
