Have you tried diagnosing this problem yourself yet? Or did you just turn it off and on a bunch and say "shits broke"

Yea i might try a cluster! Also not sure if this matters my brothers ecu went out so he bought another one and i figured it out it was a auto ecu! So i converted it to a manual this could'nt be the problem could it?

Temp, speed, and tach are the same with both transmission types. You probably have a wiring problem, or you've blown a fuse. Check your fuses.

ok i wiggled the temperature sensor wire and the temp gauge started working! there was a distributor leak so maybe the built up of oil did this! but still no speed or tach but i took the vss out cleaned the inside copper connections and the speedometer illumination started working but no speed o still or illumination for the rest!

The blue wire outside of the distributor is getting no power with a test light when the car is running! can't get the rotor cap off to try to trace the connection inside the dizzy!
