Unreliable gas gauges seem to be pretty common. My Smith gauge reads just below full when full and reads empty when there is still about 1/4 tank left. So, I reset the trip odometer every fill-up and know I have 180 - 190 miles before I have about 1 gallon left. The gauge is consistent, but I just don't trust it.
