The sending unit got disturbed when the pump was replaced.

check out the sending unit...mines junk 
The worst part is at Advanced Auto they are $240....but you cannot buy it alone, must by pump also

Re: Fuel Gauge is buggin
well usually i'll do it my self but i was just too busy, i had a local mechanic do it for me, for $150......but he agreed to fix what ever he did to make my fuel gauge non operational.....so i guess sux for him if he has to replace the sending unit.
