Nope, I've actually gotten quite good at pulling/reinstalling the thing.
Matt, was your tach doing the same thing?Last edited by Jand3rson; 03-17-2010, 09:36 PM.Comment

It was originally completely dead, then it would start jumping from 0 to 2000rpm when the engine reached that point and "skip" up the scale, then fall back to zero. I replaced the 6k tach with a 7k unit that was originally out of the '87 cluster I was using, and no problems now. I'm planning on doing the 885 head swap along with a bottom end rebuild in the next month or two, so I went ahead and threw the 7k unit in.

Yeah, mine will jump up to 2k when I start the car, and unless I wind it up to (what I suspect is) about 3k, it falls down to 0, then goes back up to 2k. Then it will start working normally, and work fine until the next time I drive the car. But I have a new one on the way, so that should take care of it.Comment

you know the needles come off, right?
anyway, if you have a 13 button OBC you can hit the 1000 and 1 buttons together and it will tell you the amount of fuel in liters.

So Matt, you were absolutely right! Swapped in the new fuel gauge and it works perfectly, as does the tacho.Comment
