bad fuel sender?

I'm having trouble with my fuel guage. It does a good job of monitoring my tank (anti sloshing modual almost makes me believe it's an electronic guage), unfortunately it only works for half the tank. At 10 gallons, the guage reads EMPTY. Can someone tell me how to go about fixing this? Is there anyway I can fix this without dropping the tank? Thanks!
P.S. 5.0 v8 (302) 1986 F150
