Help Stupid Gas gauge

The fuel gauge on My GTA is doing weird things. A few days ago I ran out of gas, but the gauge showed 1/8 tank or over. Then today the gauge showed past empty, when I filled it up it only took 8 gallons and the gauge never went past 3/4 full. My gauge was always fairly accurate. Any advise on a fix?
Thanks, Will
