so i bought a cheap saxo and i bought it knowing the fuel gauge not working. it would sometimes read but hardly ever, it would go up and down a few times them go right to the bottem and sit there for like 30 mins then read a false reading, then a true reading then go all over the place. so i went to a garage and they said it would be the sender unit under the rear seats. so i went scrap yard and got another one and then replaced it. and i still have the same problem. my temp gauge sometimes works, when it does its either half way or 1/4 way.. would it be the Instrument cluster? or a wiring problem. if it is the cluster how do you remove it and where can i get a decent 2nd hand cluster?
Thanks

Maybe the problem is not in the clutch itself if you buy other, normally it can be also from the fuel lever sensor in the fuel tank
