i have a sneaking suspicion it earths through the housing. Its located under the passenger wing on the back of the heater box :)
 
because when i turn my heater fan on the fuel gage goes up so i though its goign to be a bad earth somewer and ideas?
 
i think thatll be the dashboard earth. Its behind the console, and screws through the bulkhead, lower right as you sit in the seat.
 
erm...

You take out the console (Bit with clocks in) then on mine, its a screw with a handful of black wires going to it, that goes through the bulkhead, a wee bit further down. You can easily see it an get to it from the hole left by the clocks though.

Have a look at it ffs. It might be loose, rusty, damaged or fallen out altogether. You don't know until you get the clocks out and see what's going on. If it is loose or corroded you'll need to clean all the rust off the earth leads and the surrounding area and re fit it, maybe with a decent nut and bolt and a repair washer to make sure you've got a good solid earth point that won't go anywhere.
