um... ok. Think I followed that, but it is a bit early in the morning!
1. You might have pushed the needle in a bit too hard. Try pulling it out a little bit.
2. If you've put new dials in, they might be rubbing. Are the faces stuck down propperly?
3. You've wrecked it! Bad Speedzone! You'll have to find another fuel guage. Each guage in the main cluster is held in with a couple of screws, and can be replaced easily.

Cool - hope it's working again propperly.
If needed, there are dash clusters that are available for sale on here every now and again. Usually pretty easy to grab one and harvest for parts.

ah, a fuel guage isn't that big... posting you a set of extractors on the other hand may be a little pricey

You can get second hand clusters that include the fuel and temp gauges if you get desperate. Postage might hurt a little though as youre overseas, so better trying to fix first if you can.
