Hello again, This will be my 2nd post to this forum.

Since purchasing our newest family member "Mello Yello" 73' 26" Canyon Land we have been going on some smaller trips.

A few days ago whole driving out to Palm Spring the motorhome seems to shut off. No power steering..slow down ... I was able to pull over and park her safely along the I-5

Checked the Fuel gauge - showed Full (Past F !) Tried re-starting no Luck... Switch the Fuel Switch to 2nd Tank and started fine. For a while the needle seems to stick to the F ... but then dropped back.

I tried a few times during the trip to switch back to the main tank, the needle went back to "F"

Anyone out here has any experience wit this issues or might have a solution of how I can try to fix this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as a new GMCer and no Mechanical experience, I am not sure where to start ..

Again Thxs & Grtx Marc
