Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

I would look for a bad negative connection at the tank . The black wire, not the green one. It is probably daisy chained to the the second tank. The green wire is for bonding and no circuit current should ever flow in it. A second common point would be +12 volts at the dash but I would expect other problems also if it were bad.
