Understood.
A couple additional thoughts:
If the Fuel Gauge stopped working at the same time that the accelerator pedal response problem happened, then I am thinking the issue is external to the accelerator pedal. Somewhere there is a wiring harness break/short, loose connector, or wire harness-to-chassis grounding problem. Unless something happened under the dash to disturb the wiring harness, connectors, or ground connections, the most likely source of grounding problems is where the ground connections could get dirty, like under the hood. The wiring harness-to-chassis ground connection next to the ECM is my first choice, but you said that you already tried cleaning that up. My next choice would be the wiring harness-to-chassis ground connection next to the starter. Not sure if you were able to check that ground connection near the starter. After you recently cleared the codes, what codes is it showing now?
