I've got Kinda the Same Problem. My Speedometer Dose'nt Work, My Tach is off, kinda displays Speed when in 4th gear LOL. Gas Guage is off by 1/4 and Temp Gauge dose not work at all... Voltometer and Oil Pressure are the only 2 working in order...

Re: 91 rs speedometer and tach not working

One of the likely candidates is the speedo gear on the tailshaft has slipped off and is not meshing with the gear on the speed sensor where the wire plugs in. Are you also getting an SES light? If not, then it could be a bad wire going from the computer to the dash itself.
