It sounds like the sender and gauge are mis-matched. Fuel level senders are simply a potentiometer attached to a lever with a float on the end, and a fuel gauge is an ohmmeter which measures the resistance of the sender. Some senders increase resistance as the fuel level goes down, others decrease resistance. Obviously you need a gauge and a sender which work the same way.

Either that or you somehow managed to install the sender upside-down. Laughing
