You'll need to replace it. If you have an EK, you can get a new fuel guage from http://www.slhondaparts.com; I'm not sure if you can do that with an EG. Otherwise, you can swap the whole cluster.

You broke it when you pulled the needle off.

You need a new one.

thanks for the help! Actually i didn't pull the needles off i worked around them but i must have hit the gas needle by mistake. i guess i'll have to buy a whole new cluster.

You can actually just buy the fuel guage (or the fuel/temp gauge depending on what guages you have in there).
