I've got a couple problems:

1)The gas gauge on my 1993 Excel does not go any higher than the 3/4 mark, even when full. Recently it's been intermittent: sometimes it won't even work, but most of the time it does.

2)The temp gauge, even when the car is warm, does not go much higher than the white mark near the "C". We've replaced the temperature sensor (Dad calls it a "sender") that sends information to the temp gauge. Sometimes it works (but rarely does the needle hit the "middle" of the gauge.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

check the ground connection (a wire bolted to the body) near the inside fuse box.
