While I was working on the speedo cluster last weekend I was giving the clocks a quick dust and accidentally moved the fuel gauge needle - the other three needles (i.e. temp, speed and revs) all drop down to rest but the fuel one seems static. I moved it back to where I thought it was before, but like a numpty I completely forgot to check when I started the car yesterday, so after work I filled it right up to the top with Shells' finest and the gauge appears to be reading ok (slightly above the 'F'). However my question is will the fuel gauge have re-sorted itself out when I started the engine or by moving it have I 'de-calibrated' it so it will now always be slightly under or over-reading?

The fuel gauge will be just fine Dave, it will just re set from the input from the sender unit as the stepper motor will have moved along with the needle it will just work out fine.
