Got it, It is the sender. Hooked up the new one outside the tank (before taking tank out) and the gauge worked perfect. However the sender did not work when first hooked up so I raised and lowered the float a dozen times or more and it started working perfectly. Guess I had to wear the contacts in a bit. wow would I have been some ticked it I got that in and it did not work and all it was would have been the contact needed set in. Goes to show, test test test before busting the buns. LOL Thank you so much for all the help, it was a big help.
