My digital fuel gauge does not register the amount of feul in tank. Change out the sending unit, but the problem is still there. When tank has about two gallon left inside, then the gauge shows it being full. Help somebody!!!

go to a dealer could be electrical or computer
and ask them what could be the problem, did you change the sending unit yourself? Did you disconnect the negative battery cable before you worked on it? Cause that model has some really funny malfunctions in the computer system. But the car has a 20 year old computer anything could be wrong with it definately an electical problem. I had an 85 and my brake light would come on in the middle of driving and the brakes got real hard and I couldn't stop I had to use my parking brake to stop. I cut the car off and started it back up and everything was fine. Took it to the shop they said my brakes were brand new. It was the computer Cadillac said. I never had a chance to get it fixed because some people stole it, went for a joy ride and because of the brakes they hit a tree.
