Well... followed the how-to (good i admit) but have a problem. Speedo is ok, temp and gas - ok.... tach... bad, very bad. 0 is 1000. It sticks, like its jumpy going up, and tops off at 5600 instead of 6100. Any help. PLEASE PLEASE dont say "its it catching on the gauge" I checked 3 times. Full clearence. And I did not remove the needle.

Oh, I installed indiglo gauges if you didn't get that already

wolf... just trying to translate for myself to understand

gauge plate is the hard clear plastic that the gauges lay on

terminals are the plug areas for the gauges to light up

and dials are the needles

the terminals are being pressured down causing the opposite end of the gauge plate to lift up hitting the round part of the dials ( the middle ). My problem is that 2 terminals (the tach and the left dummy light area) are laying on top of each other. I've tried bending the terminals down so that one doesn't lift the other but obviously to no prevail. Any help on this?

EDIT: Thanks alot for the help wolf
