I topped off the single rear gas tank in my 92 Ford F-150 the other day. As soon as the pump did its first auto-off, I stopped- with no coaxing to get some more in there. When I restarted the guage was pegged about 1/8 inch further to the right than normal, With the milage I've put on it seems to be reading about 1/4 of a tank too much. Plus the needle "floats" around way more than it used to while turning and on hills. Anybody had this happen / know what might be up with it?
