The fuel level sender unit is bad and must be replaced. The sensor is located inside the fuel tank. Many vehicles have a level fuel sensor, that will send data to the gauge, and a no fuel sensor, that will trigger the no fuel light, or computer message.
This will explain why the computer says no fuel while the gauge is working.

It sounds like one of your sending units has failed.
There is a left and right tank on that car and as such ther eis a left sender and a right sender. When one fails you run into this condition where you have abrupt level changes and inaccurate readings.
The cost to replace the sending units is about 12 hours book time for the pair (figure 79-99$ per hour depending on your area).
I do not have pricing data for the two sensors however.
Once the tanks are lowered and the sending units removed, they can be tested to determine which one is at fault.
I did see that ecklers has the sending units for about 65$.
I would recommend using genuine Chevrolet parts, however.
