Zach,

I had the same problem with my 180. It was reading 1/4 tank when empty.

I did the same as you. I bent the sender rod so the gauges read empty before tanks were dry. I would rather have them showing empty and still have fuel than the other way around.

Keep the bottom side down all the way to touchdown.
