ANyone who works on 95s who says he's never seen this problem I would regard with suspicion.
It's funny if you read all the posts regarding the fuel tank, you see lots of complaints about sloshing noises from the tank up to about 2001, then the complaints change to fuel gauge problems (due to the baffle breaking and interfering with the sending unit) after the baffle was installed (apparently in response to complaints about the sloshing noise). It sems like the cure was worse than the disease. My '02, with about 102k on it, just had the baffle break and it's going to my indie at the end of the week to have the baffle fished out and properly tossed into the bin where it belongs.
Search for "baffle" or "fuel gauge" and you'll find lots to read.
