Just assuming yours is similar to my '69. I can't remember my '63.

My '69 sits on empty every day since I bought it in '97 but eventually it will show the correct value, then go back to sleep. I never did figure this out. New sender, checked the wiring Etc.
I have replaced the float with a plastic one, it and the sending unit appear to be fine as I’m reading 15 ohms at the tank with about 1/2 a tank of gas.
