Not all silicone RTV is created equal.
Ford used only RTV on some models of Escort oil pans. You need to get the stuff that is petroleum compatible. I believe most auto parts stores carry it in bubble pack tubes.
If you ground your Fuel Tank Sending Unit with a jumper wire, does your gauge read, Full? If so, your troubles are at the tank area. Either a ground or a Sending Unit problem. Let us know what's up and take lots of pictures. Your gauges should work. - Dave
