If I persistently knock on the gauge it might move a little or not at all. removed back seat and did ohm testing on both senders, one at around 20 with tank half-ish full, the other (passenger/fuel pump side) at zero. I’m trying to figure out whether it’s a sender issue or a gauge/grounding issue before I spend any money or go further. thanks

I can’t get the mechanism to recline the seats to work well. It seems that this hinge on the inside does not follow the hinge on the outside when I activate the mechanism. Why is there so much slop Is there a remedy for this?
