Default Gauges Help...

heres the deal i have some autometer gauges that i want to hook up...the vehicle is a 94 s10 blazer 4.3 4x4 auto ....now the gauges r a autometer 5 inch tach with no extras (playback,shift light or anything...) along with a voltage gauge....and an oil pressure gauge (electric not with pressure lines)

also i have installed glo gauges for the speedometer and fuel level...the info on the glo gauges was a harness that comes off of it and goes into its own dimmer and switch to switch it to green and blue...then off of that goes into a white and black wire only...


basically i need to know how the best way to hook them up would be...thanx...

tach is easy, its only 4 wires, tach leadout, power, ground and light.

elec oil pressure, you need a sender for it.

Voltmeter you just need a wire to a battery hot( solenoid on the starter maybe)

The tach you can run off any ign hot wire, and the tach lead goes to the ign coil.

Id run them on independant circuits and make sure you crimp and wrap and secure these well.


As far as the other stuff? I have no idea

ok good...thanx...
im sorry to be a burdon but where do the wires for the tach goes...now should i run the gauges through the ignition? if so how? and another thing isnt there something to do with the loops coming out of the tach and back in?

ok and an idea on the oil pressure does the engine have a factory sending unit i can tap into...and if not is there a way i can tap into the factory oil pressure wiring??? thanx again...
