I've only had this happen to me when it was cold out when I filled up. Now that the weather has warmed up quite a bit it reads normal again.

I have not yet had this occur. It stays full for a good while, too.

my G does this too... i can rarely get it up to full on the indicator. depends on the angle of dispenser nozzle and pour rate of the pump.
