If both are out it is usually a grounding issue.  One way to check if it is your sender is to drop the tank and check the resistance from the sensor in back.

For your temp gauge it would be similar.  Find the temp sensor on the block and see if the resistance changes when it warms up.

Volt/ohm meter is needed.  also look at all your wiring in the dash area, and just in general.  clean up any connections, repair damage if needed, and it SHOULD work.
