it's quite common on 97-98 cherokees. I had to replace the fuel pump assembly on my fiancee's 98, apparently the sender was shot.

Yea my 97 is accurate until about 1/2tank or less,then it usually just goes to E Haha. I know mine needs a sending unit but I'm cheap and have been dealing with it for 6 years by just going by mileage.
