gages help and misc. wires

ok, like all my gages are wacky.

oil pressure- with key off, its maxed out, key on, really low on the gage, engine running is maxed out

tach- always maxed

volts- seems fine

water temp- sensor not even hooked up, yet was reading 220 earlier and now about 150?

speedo- nothing......works with a drill on the cable from the cruise control thing

heres pics of all the wires.....are these tbi wires?......if so, then do i have 2 fuels pumps and filters?











also there is a groaning noise coming from the gas tank area, took the cap off and pressure blew out, the cap had only been on for about 15 min
