#94307, "Removing Cluster Needles"


          

Hi,

im trying to install a Intelliglow needles kit. All the cluster is on the table and im now facing the needle. Ive read in other posts that I have to pull with finger or try to pry with a flat head screw driver. Im trying since 30min and the needle dont come off (im trying with the tach one) I decided to try with a kitchen fork (place under the black center) and try to pull harder... nothing. WTF ????

thanks

forget the fork. Get 2 spoons and put them on either side of the needle. then you can lift off the needle with even pressure on both sides...

Thanks for the spoon, the installation is completed but I got problem with the recalibration. My rpm is ok. The speedo is a little off buy I will put it back when driving at 60... the major problem is the temp gauge, when a first start the car after install the needle was a little over the C. The needle has go up when it warm, but when I shutdown the car it will not drop... just stay at the same place or move down maybe... 1/4 " ????
