Re: dash problems
I believe that you will need to switch some wires on the harness plug when you switch from an idiot light panel to a gauge panel. Scroll down this page on this link to GMC Paul's site for a wiring diagram:

You may have burned out your fuel gauge by hooking it up with the wrong wiring configuration. Switching instrument clusters is not plug and play.... LockDoc
