EDIT....
I figured out the problem... Read post #2

I need some verification....

I installed the Electric FP gauge and it does not move at all. I swapped the gauge and sensor with new ones, and I am positive that the wiring is correct. I verified with a voltmeter that the voltages are correct.

My question do I have the sensor on the right line...
This is the line I have it on:
Is this correct???

Well I figured out what the issues was. The threads of the sensor ground it. Since it was in a rubber hose it was not grounded. So I had to ground it manually..:)

In case anyone else checks out this thread. Check out post one for a pic of what fuel line you need to tap into for a fuel pressure gauge.

I posted a new pic in post one... I have the line circled. I bought new fuel line and tapped the line next to the firewall.

maybe you have a different sensor than me... looks like mine screws in then has a plug that goes to the guage

Mine also screws in... That is just a pic of the line that needs to be tapped.
I just put in a brass T fitting with a 5/16 hose barb on each side and the sensor in the middle....
