restarted it, let it sit while off, started
it and drove it till it went back to a

I would suspect the sender unit for the gauge is faulty and needs to be replaced. It is not something to do yourself unless you are OK with working on fuel tanks.(explosion hazard). The tank will likely need to be removed to do this.
