go to radio shack and get some rhiostats (spelling?) plug them in to the pigtail that connects to the sending unit, sweep the rhiostats, if the gauge sweeps then the sending unit is the problem, if the gauge doesn't sweep then the problem is in the wiring to the cluster, the wiring at the cluster, or the gauge itself.
