Oil pressure is more complicated on the bench. You need more testing equipment. For that one, the easiest way is to just push the needle on wherever the hot oil pressure psi is spec'd per GM while the truck is running.
Whatever works best for you. This method is for a cluster on a bench and not plugged into the truck or fuel sender. You can also note your last fuel tank level and then stick the needle on at the same level. This way is a little more accurate because you are calibrating it to an exact known position.
So I bought your replacement motor and after following your instructions and putting everything back together my fuel gauge still jumps all over the place.
Same way you do the oil pressure one?

Whoa. That's really great. I got mine in without calibration because I needed use the vehicle. I'll calibrate it properly now, though. Thank you.
Great video. One question can you just mark the location of the needle before you remove it rather than recalibration it?

@duke5767 ok, so you eliminated the gauge as the issue. Now need to track down what's causing it
@@duke5767did you find the issue mine also does that for the fuel gauge
