One thing you could have tried is kicking the gas tank a few times to nudge the pump although I've never heard 1st hand that that works.
Regarding putting together a replacement FP.....make sure you take a close look at the rheostat type small circuit board at the pump end of the sender arm. The fine metal gradations that I assume vary the voltage going to the fuel level guage can wear out and limit range of readings, if you have a few pumps around pick the circuit board that looks in best shape, maybe even use an ohm meter and check that resistance varies over complete range of arm movement. Also vaseline the cover large oring on install to make tightening smoother.
DanaH, 97 9000CS, gotta get at the rust spots......
