Remove roll top center box by removing screws. Remove all screw under flat areas and at end of wood. Pull up on shifter plastic surround. Lift wood off , switches will come with it and unplug from there connectors.

you need 2 long hooks to slid between cluster and dash to hook rear edges hohl med. presure while pulling towards you. then you can reach behind and remove wires then cluster. note mark down where all wires connect.

You can try to clean the ground behind the instrument cluster to see if that helps but most likely the sending unit has gone bad in the gas tank.

There are swing clamps about six on both side of the air-box to the right front of the vechicle just lift up the cover and pull out the filter. The replacement will be a two depth fliter one side larger than the other that faces down into the bottom of the box and the shorter end goes twards the engine. If this is a cabin filter the glove box has to be removed ( easy ) just remove the six phillip screws and give the glove box door a good strong left to right pull and it shoud come out. just behind that is a retangle covering to the right with sliding lock. just slide the lock to the left and the cover comes off the filters come out left first and than right. reverse procedue other than the pulling of the glove box that should go back in easy.

KOMPRESSOR ENIGNE?? IF SO CHECK BY THE FIREWALL DRIVERSIDE. ITS A THIN FILTER CAP , HAS A BLK 27MM PLASTIC ALMOST NUT TO REMOVE OIL FILTER.

I got the same problem about a month ago.
I've changed the gearbox fluid and filter and it's OK now.
