    Dancing Fuel Needle

    Gents, On my W124 500E I've recently started to have the fuel needle dancing quite dramatically. It's ok from full down to 1/2 & from 1/4 & below but between 1/2 & 1/4 the needle is up and down in quite quick movements. Is this the fuel sender or something more sinister. Cheers D
