John,
There are 4 nuts behind the dash that holds in the gauge cluster. They are
a lot easier to get to if you remove the radio grill first. The temp gauge
and the complete capillary tube must be removed together. Loosen the
capillary tube nut at the engine and weasel it through the fire wall when
you remove the temp gauge. Failure to follow these instructions will
require you to purchase a new temp gauge assembly, so DON'T BREAK THE
CAPILLARY TUBE. There are two bolts that hold the gauge in the cluster.
Also don't lose the little rubber thingys that are on the wings of the
gauge.
