Getting the Wheeling Fever
I think I have a bad ground or somthing, somewhere. My oil pressure and temp gauages dont work at all, my fuel works only when it wants to and my computer is telling my it dosent have a good signal from the speed sensor. I just replace the instrument cluster to no avail so I must have a bad ground somewhere. I have a ground wire that was connected to the fender by the coil and I wasn't sure where it weht so I oput it on the engine block ( I replaced the engine) Any ideas guys?

Grounds from the back of the head to the firewall, from the passenger side of the block to the frame and fender, intake plenum to the frame or fender and the main cab ground behind the driver's side kick panel.

A quick test is to connect a jumper from the ground point on the cluster to a know good ground. If the problems go away, you can either trace out the cause or connect a permanent jumper.
