After sitting out most of the last year, I filled her up yesterday and found that the fuel guage has not risen from empty, and even a spirited drive has made no difference, have checked the instrument attachment bits etc and can't see any corrosion or loose wires and cleaned the float terminals. Any clues??

Float is broken in top photo. Not my photos, just a goggle search, but gives you a idea, of what you will find, maybe a clean up and reinstall.

OK so have had the sender out (easy job) taken the bottom off (not so easy but got there) and cleaned the inside, Float seemed stuck at the bottom so pushed it up and down and wd40'd it, float moved ok so reinstalled but no movement at the guage. Will have a look at the float itself in the next day or two now that I have gained some confidence in pulling it apart. Good news is that with the contact cleaning the clock has reactivated!! Will report back then. Thanks again.
