Gas needle stuck again

Gas needle stuck again
I filled up my gas yesterday and the needle got stuck. It's done it before but it fixes itself after a while, so I never fill up the gas. This time I just want to fix it. Any input would be appreciated.

Does it move at all?
Have you replaced your fuel filter or anything in the fuel pump sending unit?

A misinstallation can cause this problem, which is why I asked about that. Otherwise you are looking at a short most likely.

I dunno if we're having the same thing but... when I do a full fill up, the needle goes way past the F line and it stays there for around 100km or so then comes down. I don't think it's stuck, its just more full than the fuel gauge can show...

I guess I assumed "basic" troubleshooting had already been done.
