92 camaro RS gas gauge moves to full

in my camaro the gas gauge is not accurate or not working it always moves back to full, in fact the only time it does'nt say full is when i press the brake it will move to the actual amount of gas i have then shoot back up to full ive been reading online and so far from what i can tell maybe its not grounded properly? can anyone suggest a solution or maybe a how-to in order to fix this i am going on a trip to California from Texas and i want an accurate reading on my gas. thanks for any input

its a 3.1 v6

the proper way to do it would be to drop your tank, remove the sending unit, them ohm out the sending wires and make sure its going in the 0-90 range like its supposed to, if its in spec id look at the gauge next
