Fuel Gauge Reading

My fuel gauge starting acting wierd the other day. It was at about quarter tank then while driving it moved slowly up to three quarters. Stayed there for few and then started moving back down. It has did that 3 times now. The service engine light came on after I started the truck. I read and cleared the code: P1396 the next day. After about the 2nd stop and start it came back. I haven't had a chance to check the connectors under the driver side valve cover yet.
Well today after I stopped and got some fuel the Service light went out. Could there be a short maybe somewhere?
