First of all, the gauge diameter is too small.

Time to sort out the wiring, so connect the battery for the first time since December.
That also let my cycle the fuel pump and check for leaks. Nothing obvious! Attached thumbnail(s) |

I need a switched positive lead. I deleted the clock, but can't use the lead for that since it is unswitched. Instead, I will take power from the volt meter.
