Fuel Gauge Problem Affects CEL? 1999 4runner

Hey guys,

So I'm loving the 3rd gen 4runner (99 limited 4wd w/ elocker), but it had some known issues that we've slowly been taking care of. One of these is the fuel gauge TSB, which the place we bought it from agreed to fix. Now, a month later, they've backed out with a bunch of excuses even though they only did part of it by replacing the fuel pump. They kept saying they couldn't get the part for behind the dash and blah blah blah. They gave me $350 bucks and basically said "good luck" and sent me off with 2 days before the temporary permit expires. It won't pass inspection because when you turn the key, the CEL doesn't come on at all. It will light up if you hit on the top of the dash, but then it just stays on. Is that related to the fuel gauge at all? It doesn't sound like it is. Any suggestions on what I should do now? I'm pretty much stuck on how to handle it.

Thanks.
