You might not be getting any replies because this question is really being asked in the wrong forum, it should go in the tech section.  So while we're waiting for this to get moved, did the fuel gauge just get stuck on full, or has it moved at all since you last drove it?  If it's still on full...fill up your tank, sometimes that will fix the problem...
