Oh no not another fuel gauge issue!

Unless the bad wiring (assuming that's what it actually is) is inside the tank (all that's in there is the sensor/pump and you have a new one) or you have a hole in the tank (you'd probably smell it if so), the chance of explosion and/or gasoline fire should not be not any greater than normal. There could be a greater chance of a wiring-initiated fire (eg, under the carpet), but the fuse should blow before things get too hot. But, yeah, since gasoline could be involved, it would probably be a good idea to limit how much your drive until you find out what the problem is, just to be safe.

Good luck finding/fixing the problem and let us know what you find out.

Edit: Keep in mind that I'm just making a (educated) guess about the problem being a high-resistance circuit and the risk of fire/explosion may be much greater or much less than I portray above. It's probably not a safety issue, but better safe than sorry.
