This is a common problem with the 80. It is a ground problem. These senders are prone to problems because water and moisture has no escape. What I did with mine was to hook wires into the connections and then create a dome in the recess with epoxy-leaving the wires sticking out to hook into. this solved many of the moisture related corrosion for the two leads into the recess. The ground is still a problem but you can put rubberized sealer over it once it is plugged in. If the unit is grounded properly it should work correctly. the actual sender seems to last a long time. I owned '80 sedans for 22 years as daily drivers so I have seen many problems that were related to just the connections.
