In my experience that's usually caused by a bit of corrosion on the
sender wires, possibly caused by long storage with the fuel at that
level. I try to store my cars with the tanks full, for that and many
other reasons. It's also important to have the overflow hose repair
done, to keep the tank dry inside.
I can usually clean the wires off easily.
