Problems with Geno's fuel pressure gauge.

Perhaps Cryppie or someone else who has installed the Westach fuel pressure gague from Geno's could help me out. The part # D2C8-8 Kit I was sent included both the gauge and sender. Is that the part you got? In the instruction sheet the sender only shows a single top terminal, while mine has 2. The instructions state to connect the green wire from the gauge to the sender, and the black to ground. The label on the sender calls them #1 and #2 and states to connect the green to #1 and #2 to ground, but they are not identified. I tried connect the wires either way but could not get the gauge to work. I have both power and ground to the gauge but no signal from the sender. I then got the Ohm meter out and got no resistence to ground from either terminal on the sender. I do have fuel going to the sender, as the spots on my shirt will attest. I assume that the sender is faulty as I should have some resistence to ground. What gives?
