Your cluster will be oem VDO and the usual problem with the speedo is a stripped small gear wheel inside the speedo unit, or maybe a poor wire connection on the rear diff. A useful guide for a fix is at: https://www.prancingmoose.com/740-odometer-repair.html

The problem with the fuel gauge is likely to be a poor solder joint on the fuel gauge pcb.

Thanks for the advice Bob, was given a spare sender unit by the seller as he'd advised it was that. The gauge tends to say full, empty or halfway depending on mood/wind direction! Was pleased to get a facelift, I do like the 1990 front end.
