I've got a stock '84 Elky with factory gauges and everything works. I had to replace the printed circuit on the back of the dash because only one bulb behind the gauges worked. My clock was broken so I picked up another one from a member here and it works but it runs fast as long as you're driving it regularly. If I park it and let it set it seems to keep accurate time but as soon as I start driving it the clock will advance about 10 minutes a day. Anybody know a fix for this?
 
I suggest sending it to Instrument Services for a quartz conversion. We did that on my dad's 62 Galaxie with stellar results.
 
I though this was the only car that could do that..
