Terry64HT is on a distinguished road
If the oil and temp gauges work ok, then it is almost certainly the sender. The best way to tell is get underneath the car, disconnect the sender (it's a push on plug) and short across the wires. The gauge should read full.
If it does, the problem is usually that the float is filled with gasoline. Both complete sending units and replacement floats are available from most suppliers.
Hope this helps
