Lumina APV '91 cluster mahem

[vernslife]

Had the tranny relaced at 176k and since, the speedometer reads 10-20mph below correct speed, oil pressure reads 40-80# and gas guage bounces.
A dashboard circus!
Popped in a junkyard main cluster and got same results.
Tranny installer feels there's no relevence. Any Ideas?

With the 3.1 there is no real oil pressure indication: just a pressure switch that, given a pressure above a few psi, makes a contact and sends a constant current through the gauge and then the indication should be steady, just telling that "there is some oil pressure".
Most probably, a ground or similar problem..which explains the rest. Make sure battery ground, engine ground and body ground have solid connections all together. A forgotten ground bus in the rebuilt is a possibility.
Anyway, install a voltmeter in a steady way on the cigarette lighter plug, for instance, and other and verify the voltage. Change voltage bus and ground location using jumpers woith alligator clips to keep the tester connected while the car runs. THis could provide telltale signs...
..about changing the transmission: was a transmission with same code used in the replacement? Wrong code could mismatch speed sender and PCM firmware....but I do not see relation with oil pressure and gas gauge bouncing....
