Sounds like it's going to ground, or more sensibly sounding not going to ground. LOL

here's good read. No teflon tape and bad sending units abound.

you have the idiot light sensor, not the gauge sensor.

no pressure, contacts closed light comes on, with pressure contacts open, light goes off.

Disconnect the wire from the sender, and ground it to the block. Turn on the ignition (no need to start it) and see if the gauge goes to full pressure. If it does, the gauge is good.
