Had to park my daily driver and take my spare Beetle. Fuel gauge is WAY past the full mark.
Stopped and topped off the tank since I had no idea how much fuel it had in it. Only took about 5 gallon.
After fueling up the needle was even further past the full mark. Shut key off and needle goes to just below the 1/2 mark. Guess that will be the new temporary empty.
Only thing I can figure is somehow the needle slipped on the peg. I don't think it's a sending unit problem.
I guess I'll have to pull the cluster, remove the cluster glass and reset the needle to empty and see how that works.
I don't recall if the cluster needles have a detent index or not.
