Gas Guage Gone Crazy
After I Installed My Fuel Pump.. The Gas Guage Is All Over The Places And Wen I Fill The Car Up It Stops After A Quater Of The Way Up.. Anyone Else Has This Problem?? How would i know if i had a gas leak or a gas flow problem?? im running nitrous soo this could be devastating.. I already had a nitrous backfire soo im worried

the gas gauge is cause you messed up the sending unit. you can buy one at nissan for about 100 dollars. be CAREful when you put it back in. it is very easy to break.
the nitrous backfire is probably due to one of two things. you either dont have a TPS switch working right or you have a slow nitrous leak through the solenoid.
you need to be careful with nitrous as well, i would hate to see you posting up how it blew up your motor due to incorrect way of installing it...

the reason you blow your intake off is having nitrous in your intake with the throttle plate shut. i would have a professional shop check out the install.
you should not have that problem...
good luck!!

what could cause that?? sorry im asking alot of questions but when i go to the shop i want to being informed so they just dont tell me the car is fine and send me on my way.. so u think the cause of it was a bad install?? and could i have damaged something besides the intake??

King Kong, judging by the other post you made about the backfire... I'm not even sure I trust your installer and I have no idea how they are!
Something is definately wrong with your setup. Just to reassure, I agree with AM that it is the sending unit causing the gauge to go crazy. I had the same problem when a crappy shop messed with mine and SGP had to fix the problem.
If you go to Google and type in "nitrous backfire" you will get hundreds of results to answer your question - the first few hits are great reads for all other questions about nitrous also. You will probably learn more from those sites than this forum (just because nitrous isn't a main sole power adder here).
You risk damaging your intake, throttle body, and maybe even engine with another backfire. Read. Reasearch. Buy more gauges. Find a new tuner.
Good luck buddy!

yea i think im going to need to do that.. is the sensor something that needs to be fixed immediately?? does it do anything besides measure the gas levels?? and i tried to google nitrous backfire and it said something to do with lean or rich conditions and pooling.. could someone simplify a nitrous backfire and really let me know what im dealing with??
i would fix the sensor pretty fast, its a 100 dollars. i know a guy who had one that was messed up and thought he had gas and got stranded...
also, take it to another shop to check out the nitrous, it shouldnt be ever blowing your intake off...

i went to a reputable shop and i was told too get rid of the nitrous and get a single turbo because nitrous in the end leads to bad things..i think thats whats about to happen without getting the single turbo...
