I bought a new tank and replaced the sending unit
assembley at the same time last fall for an unrelated
problem.  The gas gauge reads exactly the same as
before.  I have also had three different instrument
clusters in my van over the past year and all three
fuel gauges read exactly the same - so it's probably
some shortcoming in the design of the system.
