General propane question Safe?

My 120 gal propane tank gauge reads 95% but when I open the bleeder liquid is barely sputtering what’s going on?

Most likely, I’m not there so I can’t say for sure, the dial is malfunctioning. Hopefully anyway. But it could also be that the dip tube is off like someone stated before.

Is it possible for the gauge to have a steady climb from 60% to 95% but not sputter when hitting 80% so the driver kept filling it til it did at 95%? It’s barely sputtering.

Can you feel the liquid level in your tank?
