hi i have a 1994 corsa b! having problems with the reading on the fuel gauge. it just seems to bob up and down when it pleases! is this a common fault,bad connection or would it be easier to just change the whole dials unit itself? help needed......

It's the fuel moving around in the tank. If you do some slow braking then yeah it's move up. Also if you are joining the motorway and it's an uphill approach then it'll say you have less.

Nothing wrong with your dials or the sensor in the tank.
