<VV> Fuel Gauge Needle REALLY Stuck on E

[hank kaczmarek]

Or, could be the ground on the instrument panel isn't good. 
When my LM is on e it has less than 1 gallon in it.

Yep,

3 or 4 gallons in the tank when it is on E is normal for Corvairs,
especially late models.

You can bend the float arm and correct for this, to some other number. But,
make sure the float does not hit the bottom or sides of the tank, as it
will very soon wear a hole in it. Don't ask how I know! ggg
