[oletrucks] 58 GMC Gas Gauge Inoperative

[dcvjrv@comcast.net]

Quick question to the group.  When I turn the ignition key on the gas 
gauge goes past
full.  I have checked the sending unit out and it is okay.  I can 
unplug the wire from the
sending unit to the gauge and the same thing happens.  I am 
suspecting that the gas
gauge has an internal short in it.  Is this correct or is there 
another problem?

Thanks to any and all responses.
