Re: Fuel Gauge - wtf?

have you checked the wireing to the gauge and the sender. if its connected to something wrong it may not be able to get the full voltage to the gauge stopping it working above half dose it stay on or go off after the ignition is off?

Re: What to block of charcole cansiter pipes etc with??

what do you mean by loop back the other end? i have vented the pipe that comes out of the bulkhead into the airfilter and done the same as you on the throttlebody. isnt the one near the airfilter a vent for the fuel tank?
