    150 speedo

    Hey Shawn, It depends on the work that needs to be done, but a repair and calibration job is usually around $185. If it also needs to be restored, you're looking at $225. You contacted me about the one I have listed on eBay for $250. If you would like to purchase that one directly (not on...

    Gauge Marks oil pressure gauge not returning to zero

    Sorry for the late reply, but you're correct! The gauge will return to zero with switch on. Otherwise, it remains fairly constant with the pressure it was showing at key off. These gauges are (were) built from original GM components which did not have a return to zero function. Lately, I am...

    About Gauge Marks

    It's been quite a while since I've been on here, but trying to get back in the groove :) So sorry for the late reply. 70-77 tachs are very finicky. The meter can sometimes be repaired if it's an electrical issue. If it's out of balance, then it almost assuredly is a no-go on the repair. If you...

    tachometer wiring question

    Yes, the tach will need to be grounded. The grounding for the tach is received through the rear printed circuit. On Trans Am, the clock and tach are grounded at the same location. Looking at the rear of the tach, the upper left blade is for tach signal, the upper right blade is for 12V+...

    Apology: Please Read!

    On may 7, my mom suffered a brain hemorrhage that paralyzed her and caused a few other problems. Mom lives in Easley SC, which is 4 hrs away from my home. I packed a bag and took off to SC, where I have been for the most part of the time since May 7. Glory to God, she has miraculously survived...

    Another Tach question, sorry!

    The tach signal is sent when the coil fires. Basically, if the car is running, the tach signal is present. The tach signal is sent from the neg side of the coil on both HEI distributors, and "points" distributor systems. On 78-81 models, the tach should return to 0 when power is ON (engine...

    Temp guage

    The temp gauge will receive voltage (and a signal from the temperature sensor sender) via the printed circuit on back of the gauge cluster. There is a wire that will connect to the sender, but it isn't connected directly to the gauge itself. The wire is part of the wiring harness that plugs into...
