So the sender is trying to work. Since it is a new tank and everything the first thing I'd do is check the sender ground to make sure it is good. There should be a wire (black usually) from the sender to the chassis, if it's not getting a good ground the scale/range the gauge shows will be out of whack.

Thanks, thats a good lead right there.
With all the snow n salt it could not be grounded right.
