2/24/19:The gas gauge pegs to full when the ignition is turned on. To make a long story short, after spending the day troubleshooting, rewiring, checking grounds etc., I determined that the sending unit was bad. I ordered a new sending unit.

After taking out the sending unit trying to diagnose the gas gauge problem, I discovered that the inside of the tank is varnished from old gas and is rusting. I suspect that the whole fuel system needs to cleaned out.
