    When mine did that it was the MAS. Easy to clean. Auto parts stores sell a special spray for it.

    I don't know what the link was with the tank being half full but that's exactly what I was experiencing.

    Interesting, the LS1 powered buggy I wheeled with in Moab did some crazy stuff like that. The fuel suction line had come off inside the fuel cell. Being as our sending unit sits barely off the bottom of the tank, I would go with the gage error, or maybe even the sediment, but only if it starts after it stalls.
    ANother thought, if the sending unit is going bad, it may not be enough suction head as the tank gets empty. A long shot, but if you put the old back in there...
