I put a new diesel pump and gauge into my 406 but when I fill up now
the diesel needle stays at Completely empty with the light flashing
UNTIL I have done a few miles when it starts to jump around the gauge
and eventually showing Full. I know that it is reading wrong and
have been filling the car when it get to about 400 miles, BUT, does the
sender need re-calibrating somewhere, somehow?

I can remember this coming up a while back on this group and I seem to
remember that instructions were given for re-programming the unit. I
suggest a search on Google Groups through the archives.
