no tom
i've the same problem with mine , it's a mechanical one those are the early empi gauges , and it works with gas inside(like a fridge) the copper wire
inside the gauges it's a bimetallic element
i asked a danish or swedish guys who had found a shop who rebuild the gauges , but it cost something around 200 just to put a new copper wire with gas and calibrate this one
