If it reads just at full, it might be the sending unit or guage. If it reads unusualy past full it is usually a bad ground to the sending unit (floaty thing) Good Luck

test it..

take off your rear seat.. disconnect the wires going into the connector on the fuel pump / sending unit cover. and see if the gauge goes down.. if so then you have a bad float (which is part of the sending unit for the fuel gauge)
