Fuel gauge showing more fuel than it really has

[danfg2]

Hello all,

So i disconnected the battery because I was trying to install an intake and when i plugged in my battery my fuel gauge was showing i had 3/4 fuel. Before i disconnected the battery it was at 1/2 a tank. Does it just need to recalibrate itself does aynone know? i drove around probably like 5 miles and its still showing 3/4 full.

your car generated more fuel... .

Did you park your car on an inclination?

Just fill it until the pump auto shuts off. Fuel gauge should read full. Run it down to 1/2 tank on gauge and refill. You should have added roughly 6 gallons.
