Did you change the board before or after the gauges started pegging out?

The fuel and temperature gauge are the same component, so I would suspect that is the source of your problem.

I can't remember how the gauges are connected to the board, but examine the contacts to see if you have a bent pin or something on the back of the temp/gas gauge. Look for cracked solder joints on the circuit board.
