So by backing the screw or removing the plug, you release this pressure. I have used so many different fuel gauges form brand name Co's and they all differ by about 2-3 even 5lbs in pressure. Pick one and tune your engine to it and that is that.

I didn't read that it may be inside your gas tank, I hope it's an easy inexpensive fix for you
The sending unit will require dropping the fuel tank which I don't look forward to. The sending unti was only $70 shipped. It could be worse!!
