you can try and patch it up but it never sorts it properly - as for the fuel needle, could be the float on the pump that's come loose or something I know on my 1800 si the float is attached to the pump cassette and I had to replace mine coz it was loose as heyal!
lukily i'd just blown a fuel pump so had to take it out anyway
(never seen a blown pump as lucky before )
