[RESOLVED] Calibrating gauges???

[project1g]

Put new gauge overlay in, can't seem to get an accurate read from oil pressure, water temp, and gas gauge, anybody know how to reset them or something

You should have put the needles in the exact same position you took them off from. As far as the gas, just go fill your tank up and put it to full.

Yeah for some reason I just didn't think about that, I know how far off the gas tank is but I mean, I'm trying figure out a way to get them back to the right position.

if your overlays arent sitting perfectly flat they will stick up just enough to hold your needles from going to the right place. Had the same prob with mine

They fit just fine, and the needles move just fine, the oil pressure needle jumps a little but other than that they move just fine, when the car was cold and I had a full tank I put the car in "on" and moved the needles to the right spot but they moved like right back to where they were later, so they like keep staying off the right spot.
