Gas gauge is going all crazy... does anyone have a link for a step by step fix for a 2000 f-body? And also what the part I will need to buy to fix it? I think I've heard it called a floater but i cant remember.

My wife's '99 Cavalier gas gauge was doing that and we replaced the fuel gauge sending unit inside the tank (which includes the float you mentioned) and that fixed the problem. It's fairly easy to replace, but you will have to drop the gas tank; at least we had to on the Cavalier.
