i find mine always moves depending on the road if im going down a hill ive got loads etc etc! they just dont read right! best thing to do is to just stop an a flat surface for a while to get the most accurate reading! or yes it could be stuck the float

Mine changes when I'm going up and down hill as well.
Once brimmed it, drove to edinburgh and the gauge said I'd only used about 10% of the fuel. Then when I got back the gauge was reading half full 
And I've ran out of petrol 3 times mine's that bad. Absolutely no accuracy when it's low.
