I am building a junk token deck and i am having trouble making a mana base with only: 1 overgrown tomb 2 temple garden: 4 sunpetal grove 4 isolated chapel I also have play sets of evolving wilds and the guild Gate
I would like any help to make a good mana base only out of these cards
My suggestion is to make sure that you have enough ramp to ensure you get the right mana

Farseek?
Yeah farseek and whatever else is in standard right now that will help get your lands

Farseek is good, {borderland ranger} is decent. Keyrunes could be decent depending how aggro/midrange your deck is. I personally hate 'come into play tapped' lands especially when they don't do anything special, so I wouldn't include the Gates. {Chromatic Lantern} fixes all your mana problems and ramps you... You have quite a few options really. Throw together a decklist and post it, we'll be able to see what type of ramp and fixing your deck needs more clearly with a decklist.
Yeah I'd say farseek is at least one good option for you.
As far as 3 drop extra mana artifacts go, key runes are perfect and give you a guild related optional creature, {Vessel of Endless Rest} is another one that taps for any colour.
If you are spamming creatures and attacking heaps then {Druid's Repository} can really help. {Mana Bloom} is almost like an extra land, but you can use it really effectively as long as its not removed.
I got 3 overgrown tomb and 3 temple garden 4 sunpetal and 4 isolated does that sound good?

Bump
That's a good start, chromatic lantern helps and farseek can search for shock lands as well depending on what your predominant color is you will need a few plains or such as well. I run junk and both help out greatly, chromatic also helps with ramp.
