Yes, things should be tight in the front end of your car. Buy a major front suspension rebuild kit for both sides. The most common thing to go is the set of nylon top-hat bushes inside the lower tru

The voltage range of your gage is 0-12v. The voltage is ensured by the voltage regulator. I believe on your car, it is on the back of the speedometer. It is a little box about the size of your thumb
