SOURCE: fuel gauge

The fuel tank has 2 different fuel level senders(floats) It needs both of them. You have to drop the tank, and pull the pumps.

SOURCE: 2002 mercury cougar fuel gauge

Comeing from a cougar expert seeing how I own three mercury dealerships called Holcomb, Holcomb, and Holcomb's if anyone should know the answer to this one it is certainly me. I do all the buying, selling, mechanics myself. Last time I had to fix this for someone I took a mental note. First you are going to have to look on the outside of the vehicle behind the drivers door. This is called a quarter panel but for you lamens it is the fender. You need to look for a round cutout in the rear quarter panel aka Fender. If you will take notice it has a small petrustion that looks like you could stick your finger in it. You will need to pull this hatch open once inside the hatch you will notice another security devise for keeping the full locked in safe. This is a gas cap which leads to a filler neck. You will need to insert gas through this feature and that should take cared of that problem. I am glad I could be of some service if you have any other questions please contact me at one of my many dealerships my number is 501-760-2300 and ask for the main man. David You have been a great pupil and I would love to teach you some more. Thanks

I have a 1998 Jeep Cherokee I was driving it and quit running the fuel pump quit running and the gas gage stopped working

check your fuel pump relay. if not that, then it's your fuel pump. the gas gauge is in the fuel pump, so if your fuel pump stopped working, your gas gauge won't work

Heater doesn,t work. Controls on dash sometimes light up & sometimes doesn,t. All of my fuses are good. It seems to act up mostly in the morning. Sometimes if I turn my head lights on my gauges quit...

Morning Charlie,

If it were me, I would check the wires coming & going to & from engine. Maybe something is crossed. That's what it sounds like, anyways.

03 jeep liberty gas gauge is sometime at empty and some time at full

This is a common problem with all cars, If you do a search on sulfur and fuel gauge problems you would find more info than I can tell you.

But basically you will need to replace the fuel sender in the tank to fix this problem.

The sender uses silver contacts and the sulfur is corrosive to it.

The sulfer in fuel changes thru the year and sometimes its extreme.
