I have just installed today my speedhut flame guages. I had help from my brother and father on this. Just to let you know , before I installed these new flame guages, I had the indiglow needles hooked up(which was done by SilentAlero), you know where they turn the needles to a neon blue. That kit included some very fragile< I mean fragile wiring. So in the process of taking out the cluster, we had to deal with those fragile wiring, and one of them snapped on my brother. Just thinking it's to turn the needle blue, I said eh don't worry about it.

Ok so now an hour later, the new guages are on, wiring is done, and everythign is put back into place. I take it for a test drive, and i realize THE DAMN GAS GUAGE IS ON E, and before I even started, I had half of tank left.....I sure the hell hope that broken wire didn't screw everything up, or was I suppose to do something with the needle to recaliberate or what? And no I didn't draw exactly where all my needles were at before i started, but I do remember where my gas was before I started playing around. Any help or ideas...... I can't drive around in a car just guessing where my gas could be. :wtf:

actually not really, but i appreciate your help.

Thanks Oldsman for helping me out... I did what you said, and it worked. I started my car twice just to make sure it was working correctly.

I didn't have a problem with my needles after I got my speedhuts in. Maby the need got pulled off a little take it apart again and try pushing it on.
