EV2 fuel pressure gauge flutter

EV2 fuel pressure gauge flutter
Has anyone experienced erratic pressure readings after installing a FASS system?
I had a Platinum 150 pump installed on my 02 recently. The shop that did it, moved the sending unit about 2 feet from the VP in the fuel line. So the gauge is reading pressure from the FASS. ( I had previously installed the gauges from schrader valve at VP)
Since then my pressure gauge flutters between 15-18psi, non-stop. No matter how I drive or what I'm towing. idling, cruising, doesn't matter.
Here's the strange thing. The truck has been back twice, because I think they fucked something up.
1st- they installed a new sending unit, bled air
2nd- they installed a new sending unit and a snubber, bled air
BUT each time they tinker with it, the gauge will hold steady as I drive away from the shop. It's not until the following morning on the way to work that it starts acting up. The shop claims that it's normal, but I have been in alot of 2nd Gen 24's with gauges that DON'T do this.
Has anyone else seen this? How do I fix it permenatly?
Note: Not sure that it matters, but the truck goes back yet again due to fuel leaking from top of tank after a hard drive.

If I leave it as is, what will it do to the gauge in time? I'm thinking I'll be replacing pressure gauges every couple of months

that didnt work either until about a week later.......then all of a sudden wa-la it works
called ISSPRO back and asked them what it might have been....they asked if i bled it correctly and i told them i did........they responded......"here in about a month we will be bringing out a new Mechanical EV2 gauge" and that they would send me one......if they follow threw with it ISSPRO will be my only choice for gauges...thats customer service!!!!
Sorry for the hi-jack
