if you put the old one back on does the fuel gauge work?
If so, perhaps you have an issue with the new cluster ?

Too many to list......
Remove the binnacle and install the cluster. Try moving the needle by hand and see if it's stuck. Perhaps you've slightly bent the pin the needle sits on and that has caused for it to rub against the gauge face. Check the plastic sleeve of the needle to make sure you haven't cracked it also. Only other thing to try if both of these check out is a little bit of super glue to make sure the pin isn't slipping inside the sleeve. If all else fails, you've damaged the gauge.
