Maybe a little. I have tried tapping it while adjusting and that did not do much. Just having the hole in the panel to tweek it up or down a bit after a flight would do the trick. I don't have the hole on my Stang and it reads about 150 FPM low. Sometimes on the ground it reads a 150 FPM descent and sometimes it reads zero. In the air it is fairly reliable at 150 FPM less than what I am really doing.

At least you would get the vibration which might help the sticky needle.
