im guessing by you telling me that the gauge moves when you have a half tank that it is mounted inside of your ef..it is not a problem and don't worry about it because it will change with your driving..like when your cruising under part throttle your psi will be higher then where you are at full throttle at high rpms ...when you have more fuel in your tank your fuel pump will not have to work as hard because ..... your pump's feed sock is in the bottom of your tank so when you have a full tank your the fuel's weight will put more pressures on you fuel pump making it more efficient...get back to me if you still have doubt's
