Maybe just bending the float arm a touch will fix the issue. Hell, my gauge worked fine for 9k miles and only now it's F'd up.
you know what spearfish, i totally agree with your first statement. at first it was only the last LED that didn't come on. and as of a couple of months ago, it occasionally began to come on intermittently, and then after that when i used the techron for the first time, I immediately lost the 2nd LED too and the 3rd also most of the time doesn't come on. I can't prove that techron made it worse and I can't imagine why it would, but it does seem a strange coincidence that i lost two more LEDs right after the techron treatment.
