my dads fuel gauge on his 2000 was screwed up, it would go from full to empty to half and was accurate on a rare occasion. if i remember correctly it was a sensor in the fuel tank. it was not a cheap thing to replace. good luck.

mines started doing it right after i bought it, It would be way off the guage like at super full. But them as the weather got warmer it starts to read accurate and now its working properly unless its real cold in the mornings.
