The probability is you have a bad connection somewhere - the tank not properly grounded, a corroded connection between the gauge and the sender - that sort of stuff.

Disconnect the wire from the tank sender and ground it - do you get a full tank indication now? If not - check the wiring.

mine never went to full properly so I couldn't trust it, So I started to measure how many km's I could get from a tank. That is my fuel gauge now.

if the wire is earthed out and it shows full on the dash you most likely have some obstuction in the tank or bad eath

I had the same problem and it was the earth, all I did was run a bit of wire from a bolt on the chassis and put it under one of the bolts that holds the sender in the tank. Fixed straight away.

Oh and that's the second thing I tried, first was testing it while the tank was out but that was only because the tank was out!
