Like any other fuel gauge set-up - I'd test the wires coming from the sender and see it it's working. If it's not - it can be fixed like anything else. All depends if you want to spend the time. GMs like yours have senders that run 39 ohms to 250 ohms. If you find the windings have worn through - it can be rewound with $10 worth of Nichrome 60 or 80 resistor wire. Basically you unwind it (if broken) and measure how long it was. I just fixed a Toyota truck that had 8 feet of wire. Toyota sender is supposed to run 2 ohms to 110 ohms. So -it uses 8 feet of wire that has 110 ohms resistance. I.e. it needed wire with 14 ohms per foot. There are also places you can send out to get repaired and/or rewound.
