I just swapped in an SR5 gauge cluster from a '92 4Runner into my '93.

Everything works fine, except that the tach reads about 1000-1500 RPM too low. I believe the cluster came from a V6 model. Is there any way to get it to read the correct rpm?

 

yeah theres a away but im not sure i belive its something to do with something in the back of the gauge or trade it for a 22re cluster does the back of the cluster say 22re on the wire tape (the green thingy on the back) or does it say the v6 name

 

I'll check it and let you know.

thanks for the reply.

 

so cosmo whats you find?

 

I'm not finding any markings on the wire tape... any other identifiers?

It almost certainly is from a V6 since it reads too low.

 

i think the 22re ones said 22re on the ribbon tape on the back the big green thingy but yeah i think its from a v6

and sorry i dont know how to make it work for a 22re but i have read it somewhere where they did do it and it worked

 

yeah Allan I think I read that too. But by the end of it I figured it would be so much harder, i'd just get a 4 cylinder one.

 

I have considered a similar swap for my '88 22r-e 5 speed, and know where to get a tach from a 22r-e auto. Is there any reason this will not work?

so what do I do to take the cluster apart...

I assume I need to push the plastic tabs in and pull it apart.

 

still can't get the cluster apart...

 

ok to get the cluster apart if i remember right you have to take a flat head and push the clips out one at a time and unscrew the trip reset thingamabober and then you can unscrew the gauges from the back if you have a picture of this cluster i can show you by reposting your picture with the right way to remove it

 

finally figured it out. took everything apart and turned the adjustment screw forward, but now the tach doesn't work at all...
