The spade connector sometimes corrodes, breaking the connection on the wire just before it reaches the sender unit.Try trimming back a bit and fitting a new connector.

Similar thing with mine... it works fine over half full but as soon as you go past that mark it drops to empty and bounces up and down when you drive up hills... hehe

The fuel tank senders wear out as well.
