Jim, It's comforting to hear that I'm not the only one battling with an issue that is, in theory, so simple. Today, my biggest problem is that I have to give the top tube some slack, because I have to rig it to a L-shaped connector that is fitted itself to the the panel. What I will do is install a guide of some sort, to make sure that tube stays at the top.

The tubes from the tank to the sight gauge must be fairly straight. If they have a loop in them, there will be a siphon effect that will make it hang up until the head gets great enough to overcome it. It took me quite a while to get it to work right. It's especially important that the top of the gauge is vented to above the fuel line in the tank. Any pressure differential will make for an error.
