I had my fuel pump replaced last winter and about five months later the fuel guage started acting up. It may read full when the tank has dropped to 1/2 or even less. The mechanic that replaced the guage looked at it and said that the instrument cluster needed replaced. I purchased one from a salvage yard and replaced it. The problem is still the same. My mechanic now thinks that it is a wiring problem and wants to check out the wiring. I can not afford to go through that process at this time and would like to know if anyone can shed some light on my situation.

Is the fuel pump still under warranty?
