gauges not working, please help
I was going to install aftermarket gauges, after seeing them on the car i will be keeping the stock gauges...anyhow,
tachometer, does not work, my car is a 93 (so it has a tach filter taped to the engine harness, can someone get me a pic*or good description* of the wire and the coil it connects to so i can make sure it's clean)
speedometer also doesnt move(once again pics or description would be greatly appreciated
oil pressure reads good,
voltage meter, always reads all the way, which is obviously not correct
fuel gauge reads full(although its not), correct me if i'm wrong but i think i need to pop off the needle and put it on at the correct place, and it will take care of itself

As for the fuel gauge, all 4th Gens have a problem with accuracy.

i checked codes the other day for a different issue their were no codes...
fuel gauge im not so worried about, i know its manually adjusted, so i'll just fill it up and put it at full
but what about amp gauge, how is it measured?

There is no "amp" gauge. There is a voltage gauge, that reads the charging system voltage.
If the fuel gauge is ALWAYS at full, the wire from the sensor isn't connected, the sensor is damaged or the float is caught on something. Arbitrarily moving the needle wouldn't seem to be the best fix.
