Gasgauge goes to empty and a check gauges light goes on in my 1998 corvette?

We recommend Chevron Techron fuel system cleaner Chevron 67740 Techron Concentrate Plus Fuel System Cleaner - 12 oz.

This would be your first level of action.
Second would be to always use top tier gasoline see site http://www.toptiergas.com/retailers.html
Stay away from ethanol blends if possible. The alcohol is very corrosive.

And your final and really ultimate solution would be to replace the fuel level sensor in the LH tank. ACDelco SK1318 Fuel Level Sensor Assembly




Just remember to follow previous steps to stop the same thing happening to the new sensor.

I (occassionally)have had the same issue with my 1997 Corvette. However, when I stop the vehicle, turn off the engine, remove the key and restart the vehicle, the gauges return to normal. (Must be a computer "glitch"?)
It doesn't happen often but when it does it's frustrating.
