Default Auto-Refilling Gas tank??

I've noticed that my car's fuel guage doesn't work properly, It constantly reads 1/4 tank unless it's topped off. But what's even worse, is that the more i drive it just gets fuller and fuller!!

what do i need to replace to get it working again? i was thinking i threw the sensor out of whack when i drained the fuel out.
TIA

You could try cleaning the contacts on the back of the fuel gauge. However, since it actually reads full when you fill it, my guess is that your gauge is working perfectly but the float in your sender is getting stuck. The sender can be accessed from the hatch area. It's under the white flap on the passenger side of the hatch floor.
