Tach Cluster swap, no coolant gauge now?

Liek it says. I swapped it in and everything worked! no tach tracer wire needed. Oil worked as soon as i got the correct sender.

One funny thing is that the coolant temp gauge looks normal, but after a few minutes just jumps from the bottom to the middle of the gauge. When i shut it off, and turn it back on, the same thing happens, just jumps to the middle. If i let it sit till its cool, or overnight, it goes back to the bottom again.

Before with my speedo/gas/coolant cluster, my coolant gauge worked perfectly. I know theres a difference in the oil pressure sender, but is there a difference in the coolant temp sensor as well? And seeing as it worked before, are the two temperature gauges interchangeable between clusters if i take them apart?

anyone ahve some ideas?
