Some Feedback.
It’s taken a while because I don’t yet clock up a lot of kilometres in my Patrol.
I fitted a heavy duty extra battery to chassis earth cable as Yendor suggested & have now run a full tank of fuel through the motor. I am most pleased to report that like Rafa’s experience, the additional earth has fixed the problem, & my fuel gauge now reads ‘normally’ It’s great to once again have a gauge I can rely on.
Thanks Rodney.

Had same issue until dual battery under the tray was earthed back to the block where main battery was earthed. Previously it was only earthed to steel frame under aluminium tray. No problem since.
At the end of the day, all you have is yourself and all you need is your friends (and in our case our Patrol)

Now all we need to do is get Darren to fit his and see if it fixes his remote problem.

looked through manuals here, didn't see it listed.

I have been having the same problems
Yesterday I put an extra earth from the crank battery to the chassis as Yendor had suggested and Cuppa has done. The fuel gauges worked perfectly today so far. Fingers crossed it has solved my problem to
