    '68 Normal Sporto Combo Gauge Wiring Question

    I've been chasing this for awhile now and figured it is time to get some public input. As mentioned, I have a '68 Sporto that had been taken all the way down and is now almost ready to go. The problem is on the combo fuel/oil level gauge. When I turn the key to the first position, the oil level gauge pegs. All other gauges appear to be functioning properly. (Oil pressure might not since I haven't gotten that far). The picture is how it is currently wired which I believe is correct based my my details when tearing it apart. I can't find my sheet to verify though. Things I noted. If I pull off "B" by itself, the needle drops. I can pull the other blue/yellow connections, leaving the "B" intact and it will remain pegged. Also If I remove only the two "A" grounds the needle drops. I've removed both connections at the sender and it still pegs. It seems like I've got something crossed coming from a connecting gauge, but they all match my pictures. Maybe it was buggered up when I got it? Thoughts? Ideas?
    Thanks.
