Like when you driving? Or does it do it just sitting still?
 






Fuel sending unit inside the gas tank it's not fun to replace at all. Not very cheap either

like when i first start it up it goes over full than after awhile it goes back down to an eighth of a tank then some times when i start it its on empty.
 


















I have problems with two of mine doing what you described. Both had new Bosch fuel pump, sending unit assemblies installed. I got them from rockauto.

At first I questioned the anti slosh module, but after the second one I think I got some bad sending units. I let it go as I didn't feel much like changing them out again. I just fill up every 200 miles.

I did the same for 3 or 4 years. Fill up, hack the odometer, fill up before 260 miles tick off.
Then my kids kept forgetting to hack the odometer, so I finally fixed the sending unit.
