I've never over filled my tank, never topped it off. I've been using chevron techron fuel additive/cleaner and still having the same issue. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Pull the hat, and replace the fuel level sender. You might as well replace the pump while you are at it.

Ebay has inexpensive replacement options for the fuel level sender. The wiring is delicate, and its easy for it to get stuck too if its been pulled before.
