Same thing here. The gauge reads past full until 1/5th of a tank, and then the needle climbs down gradually until it reads correctly at empty (fortunately). I have not replaced the sending unit yet, but I have one waiting in the garage. If I'm understanding what's going on here, chances are after I change the sending unit, I'll still be in the same boat...

Im hoping mine is just the anti slosh thing. Tracking down a short in that harness will suck as it runs under the carpet.
