its set way ahead, maybe the senser in the gas tank has collapsed or something, i dont really know much about that type of senser. if i had to guess, i would say the senser vibrated its way loose in the gas tank.

No easy fix, got to get into the fuel tank and replace the sender. While u are in there, put in a new pump, as you really don't want to revisit this.
