look for an oil pressure tube. if you don't have one, or evendence of having one (or if the glove box option sheet is still there and says nothing about guages) then you need to rewire/replace the harness. Even though it plugs in, it is NOT wired the same.

I learned this the hard way years ago. Stupid fuel guage spun 2 or 3 circles then a puff of smoke filled up the cluster. That was about when the cussing started.
