Gas Gauge Problem

[DSMESi98TFJ]

I have the aftermarket white face gauges and they light up, the tachometer works, the speedometer works, but the gas gauge does not. I've try taking it out and putting it back in but that doesn't seem to help. I'm at a lost as of what to do. Any suggestions are welcome.

i just did this too on my car, on my instructions your suposed to leave the fuel guage needle off and go fill up then when you place the guage back on point it to the f on your guage.

yeah, the scariest thing after doing that is how you don't know the empty point exactly on your gauge. I can usually run mine to a certain point on the gauge before i absolutely need to put gas in, and when i installed gauges, i wasn't sure of where that point was.
