Well if you would have posted BEFORE I could have told you how to do it correctly... Since you already screwed up the calibration I'll give you the best guesses to get it back to being close ....
Fuel go to the gas station and put absolutely the most gas you can in the car ... Start the car let it run for a couple minutes then carefully remove the needle and reinstall at the full mark

Speedo,remove the needle,beg borrow or steal a GPS unit get out on the highway and set the cruise control at whatever speed limit is as indicated on the GPS ,If you can't get one get a freind with an accurate speedo to pace you... CAREFULLY install the needle at the indicated speed...

Temp gauge What did it normally run at when hot probably 1/2 gauge set it there when hot

Tach if you remember what the car idled at set it there ..

ok yes I knew this was guna be trial and error.. damn...

I knew the moment I pulled on them off that I was f*k'd. I got pretty mad...



What about setting everything at 0 when the cars off? I'm guessing that wont work because they are set to tension past the stop point that the ticks hold them at on the gages.
