Default fuel gauge had gone crazy

The fuel guage in my 94 accord ex has gone wack. It shows the wrong amount everytime. It goes up down, shows no gas when i have tons, and shows tons when i have none, and sometimes seems right. Does anyone know a quick fix, or what is wrong? Is it a sensor or perhaps the actual floating boot lever? Anyone anyone?

thanks,
Dustin

Damn, I have the same problem in my 95 LX - just started a couple months ago. My gas light works so I've been ignoring it. I'll get around to fixing it at some time though. Let me know if you find anything.
