These "jumpy" problems are invariably the float in the tank.
My $0.02: Never let your SL go down further than half a tank, for the following reasons:
1. I think that there's a lot of evidence that running a tank very low or dry will contiribute to the demise of the fuel pumps. These pumps (like all modern electric fuel pumps) use fuel for cooling and will overheat and be damaged if run dry. I personally had two $300 repairs on GM cars involving this; one empty tank = 1 new fuel pump. There simply is no reason to even risk running dry.
2. $35 to fill up your tank vs $70 could be the difference between being annoyed and being laid up/dead after a heart attack.
