Sounds like it is not getting hot enough to move the gauge. Put a piece of cardboard in front of the radiator and see if it warms up. If it does replace the thermostat.
I doubt you need to remove the Teflon tape on the sending unit. I've used Teflon tape on many sending units and never had a problem.
