Would this be more of a fuel gauge issue or more of the float / sending unit at the tank? And what would be the simplest way to check or troubleshoot the problem?

My fuel gauge works, kind of. The problem is it's not always accurate. Sometimes after I fill up and I drive for a bit the fuel gauge will drop down to a half a tank pretty quickly and then sit there. And then it will eventually start going down. It always goes down faster then what I actually using fuel. Another thing it does is that after you fill the tank it takes quite a while for it to climb all the way to the full mark. I have gotten to the point where I just use the mileage for knowing when I need to get gas.
