Success! 700 1990

I put a few drops of oil behind the gauge face where it goes through the faceplate and where it begins to touch the electical winding on the other side. Been working fine for a few weeks now.

The zoomspout oiler works great since it allows a precise ammount of oil to be used and can be strategically placed.

I will post back with some pics since I kind of need to redo most of the work. Some of the oil dripped though to the faceplate side and needs cleaned off. The turbo gauge bezel came loose and I didn't get repositioned right so it lets light through the crack when the headlights are on. Cosmetic corrections that annoy me...
