Is the dial wired the right way around?

Are you getting a decent earth through the mounting screws on the tank?
Mine were rusted as anything, replaced with some brass screws I had kicking about on the van and it sprung into life...

It could be that a fuel sender from a positive earth has been supplied as then the guage is going to be back to front
