Sounds as if the SENDING UNIT in the tank is faulty. They work by RESISTANCE, so when the contacts on the fuel guage sending unit in the tank get worn, it will send incorrect data. Typically it will say full when the actually IS full, then, when the tank is 3/4 full, it will say EMPTY, and then, as you use more fuel from the tank, the guage will go from what is REALLY in the tank, to empty, at different times.
Only solution is to remove the fuel tank, and replace the sending unit guage assembly.
