No Ciggie lighter, as in not installed, or not working.

Not working check the fuse, fuse good, then replace the socket or repair the ground points.  In the Archive section there are the how=to's in the ones that are Briano's there is a electrical one that is my ciggie lighter don't work or I can't charge my Ipod.

Replacing the analog clock with a Tach, yes.

fuel and water gauge not working after a few minutes, then that is the 10V stabilizer on the back of the cluster.

Go to a good electrical shop and get a lm7810 or FA-7819-aet.  50 cents versus 40 dolars on line for the same part.

odo not working then you have the red gear on the side of the speedo inside that is missing teeth or slipping on the shaft.  a drop of superglue can fix that.  Broken teeth buy a new gear.
