On a recent three hour road trip home to visit my parents, I noticed that my oil pressure gauge started going all over the place. It would read anywhere from the "n" to the "a" in "NORMAL" on the gauge, and would change from side to side quite quickly. Everything felt and sounded the same about my truck, and it was still in the ok range, so I just kept driving. On the way home, it did the same thing for a while, and then settled into its normal position. It is acting very similar to when my tach and speedo failed on my last instrument cluster, so I think it is just this gauge going now too.
I still have the original cluster, which had a correctly working oil gauge. Is it possible for me to take them both apart, and put the working oil gauge in the new cluster? Or would I be better off to put in an analog oil pressure gauge on a pillar mounting pod or something?
