Are you sure the vac line on that goes into the car and connects to the gauge hasn't been crushed or pinched anywhere as this would stop the needle dropping to where it should be as its holding the vac in the line.

Retrace the line and make sure its not trapped or crushed anywhere.






EDIT: Just read you have now sorted it so ignore the above post.

Get some 3mm I.D. Silicone hose off eBay. You can get around 3 metres for under 10quid it'll work much better than the hose that gets supplied eight your kit.
