Default Fuel Gauge Acting Up!

My Gauge is starting to act up...

Today I topped the tank and my gauge shows 1/2 tank...after 10 mins of driving the gauge started to move slowly to the full mark...after shutting the car off and restart the gauge is showing 1/2 tank again...

I searched but no answers...any help???

The fuel pump was not removed from car...

Is this a Difficult work? I dont want to take the car to the dealer..

Should I remove the Whole Pump assembly to check if a wire or something is messed? Any Instructions on how to remove it? thanks

what would you do if you found a "messed" (up?) wire? would you solder a wire on your fuel pump........ or......

if you do not know what you are doing, i would encourage you to not attempt this procedure.
