your help please anyone, i have just fitted some white dials to my 95 wrx import what a nighmare i busted the needle for the fuel and ended up buying a new fuel guage! but all back together now but i started the car and the rev counter doesnt work properly on idle it reads 0 and when you rev it up it only moves abit and looks sticky! i have felt the needle by hand and it does move freely. has anyone had any problems with there clocks after fitting dials and if so how did you sort it many thanks pete

Sounds like when you tried to remove the needle, you also removed the spindle that it fits on.
It's trial and error to get it back to it's original position. Try and do it with the engine running so you know where it roughly should be.
If your very lucky it will go on correctly, it can be done. Been there myself.
If not it's a new rev counter too.

P.S. Normally the fuel and temp just slide on around the needle with no need to remove them.

hi thanks for info i will try that later on but just noticed the temp guage is reading well above normal about 4-5 dots more what a nightmare, dont wanna risk removing the needle now again!
thanks pete
