Erratic Gas Guage

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be going on?

I filled up my gas tank earlier in the week. The gauge dropped quickly for the first 1/4 of a tank. I dropped more slowly until the low gas light came on. Less than 5 miles later, the gauge dropped to below empty. The total miles driven were much less than a fuel tank.

The gauge has acted up in the past. Sometimes, it wouldn't show full. The rate of decline doesn't seem as linear now as it was the past.

This behavior has happened before and after I replaced the fuel tank last year. Today's drop from the fuel light coming on to showing completely empty. I don't think it is.

Thanks for any thoughts
