I'd make sure I'm using quality gas and also run a bottle of Chevron Techron Fuel System cleaner through it. A lot of cars have problems with "junk" building up around the sensor and the sensor not reading correctly on the dash.

The same exact things happened with my Expedition. I have to use Chevron to keep the gauge working. Maybe it's a conspiracy by Chevron?
