I usually do this from the back without taking needles, but someone took it apart , when they up mileage(saving in custom charges). How to calibrate temperature and fuel needle ?

They come out together with spindle (metal part)

Take the needle off the spindle, tap it back into motor with the end of a pair of pliers, then if the engine is cold turn on the ignition and set the needle at zero, they drop past when the ignition is off, the fuel is a guess unless they want to fill fuel tank to top, then you can set gauge to full.

Thanks guys , for temp I waited until ventilator started blowing and put it right on half. For fuel I took a guess.

Thanks for your help
