Looks good but why is the fuel gauge turned? I understand the temp gauges to point upwards. I looked in to this but never did the project. I wanted to replace the water and oil pressure with Defi water and oil temps as well as the tack but I don't want to loose the low warning as well as the cruise lights.

the fuel level guage is turned simply to match the oil & water temp guages.
I still have to add a low oil level warning light - I plan on putting it in the A-Pillar pod next to the Oil Pressure guage

how much ohms do those three gauges need? I need to replace tack and speed gauge on my cluster on my FD. Thinking of replacing all the gauges with autometer. Can someone please help? Share some info.

The ford style fuel meter is not a very good match to the mazda sensor so now I would use one of the newer programmable style fuel meters instead.

I have been trying to call some other guys who replace clusters but got no response. it's been about a year. I have seen many negative responses on repairing or replacing clusters in this forum and it doesn't sound good so I were looking into auto meter 5'' tac, 3-3/8"speedo,2-1/16"water temp,fuel and oil .To me thats the way to go but i need to know the ohms for WT, fuel and oil.
