Are you saying that the gauges are pegged out all the time? If so you may need to replace the instrument cluster voltage regulator. ICVR or IVR. I would recommend buying or building your own electronic one. The replacement ones are not the greatest at all. You could also have a problem with the gauges being grounded out.

Here is a link about making your own. http://chris66dad.tripod.com/id29.html

I think NPD sells one.
