it may be an issue with the sending unit connections not sure. or the fuel pump going. as far as the hard starts goes. try turning the key on and either count to 3 or wait till the beeps stops then try starting it. i tell my wife to do this with hers so that it gives the fuel pump time to pump fuel and build pressure. starts right away with doing this as opposed to cranking on it a few seconds like she used to. but as far as the backwards reading im not sure not an electrical guy either.
