you probably broke the sending unit for the guage. Its on the back of the motor on the driver side. I did the samething when I installed mine this past wed <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> and dont feel like takin it off to fix, but its pretty important gauge. I bought an auto-meter, and might just hook that up instead

Just disconnect the hose from the brake booster side instead, and leave it connected to the manifold until you get it out of the engine bay.
