I'm thinking either I laid the float in wrong or I broke something. The gauge just stays on full. Has anyone had this problem after changing the pump, if so what fixed it. Just looking for an answer before I open up the tank again and stink up my car with gas. 1999 CSVT Black/Blue, MSDS headers/ypipe, test pipe, TruBendz-Borla Catback, short shifter, KKM induction, 17" SVT Focus wheels optima red-top 2003 IS300 stock 1966 Restomod Mustang 2+2 5.0/5-speed, & much more
