Yeah mine has done that. Except mine is moving the opposite direction towards vacuum. I was going to try and take it apart to see if I could get it more towards the center again. I think over time the mechanical spring mechanism in there gets tweaked slightly so it alters the center point.

Yup. I had the same gauge and it would move around slightly over time.
