Default quick gauge question

In article .com,
says...

how much work would it be to install a new gas guage in my '95 18ft
Neptune fishing boat? The current guage has apparently just quit on me
for good and not knowing how much gas is in the tank is pretty scary.
Do I need a mechanic to run the wires deep into the gas tank or is it
something I can install myself?

Test your gauge electrically and find it is probably o.k., more than
likely the float in the fuel tank has submerged due to absorbing fuel
until it sank. You will probably need to fix the 'sending unit' not
the gauge.
