Does the tach needle bounce when you crank it over?
Could be the fuel pump relay
Check the fuses also

Check the leads going to the sending unit at the tank
Could be a bad ground

You may want to post the question on the rennlist 996 forum also
It has a LOT more traffic and some very knowledgeable people there
