New fuel pump - Fuel Gauge not detecting full tank

[mookieit]

Replace my fuel pump and filled it up twice, but the gauge seems to not detect full tank.

I feel that I missed something, what could I do to try to fix that?

The float for the gauge is tangled. It happened to me when I installed the Fore Innovations fuel system. The gauge didn't work, took the fuel hat out and the float was caught on the plumbing inside the tank.

If it's not caught on anything, the float arm could be damaged or the hinge rusted. You'll have to look inside again.

Here is a picture.
