Not too sure on your friend's pulley remark

But yea my gas gauge does the same exact thing. I drive the friggin thing down the block and let the car sit for no less than 3 minutes and the gauge jumps down an 1/8th of a tank. But usually it jumps back up after I drive it for a little

My Z use to do it really bad I would have half a tank and the needle would drop down all the way and make my gas light turn on. I would have to turn off the car and turn it back on and it would go back to normal. Once day it stopped and has been working normal since. I think I let it run almost completely out of gas and that might have fixed it but not 100% sure on that one.
