when engine is ticking over it should be reading vacuum (ie negative) if it is able to do vacuum. Can you tell us what model and where you have connected it to ? I've never fitted digital, has it got a hose leading into the gauge, or a remote electric sender and just wires into the gauge from the sender. If its a sender then it sounds like its shorting out.
