so there is not really anything to fix it ? a new sender would be the same ? so in other words they were like this when new ? and the elec bar gauge just will not be accurate....

You can't prove anything is broken, so no fix.
You've only shown you aren't familiar with the car yet.
This car is not like your old Pontiac, or whatever you used to drive.
The bar gauge has worked fine for millions of other people with identical cars, and not so identical cars.
