Could be a short-circuit sensor or a grounded wire as well as a stuck gauge.
Disconnecting the wire from the sensor, then from the back of the gauge,
will tell you which.  But if it is stuck on 180 with the ignition off it is
the gauge.

Could be you have a non-vented cap, it should be a vented one.
