The sending unit is like a float that raises and lowers as you use gas, like a toilet float. If the float cracks and gets gas in it it will not work correctly. Or if it has been in a tank with out gas in it might rust inside the tank and not work correctly. A gas gauge could go bad too. It all depends on how the car has been stored, moisture, etc.
