A few things to check:

-Is the fuel flow sensor actually getting 12V from either the D180 or ship's power?
-What's your K-factor set at?

im going to recheck that it is a full 12 volts and i have the k factor at the 68000 setting thats called for in the install sheet

First test: Tap ground the wire going to the fuel flow transducer against ground, a few times a second
This should show flow.
If it does, and there is 12V at the transducer, the transducer is bad.
If tapping the wire against ground causes no flow, then you have a wiring or D180 issue.
