do they show the correct readings when the car is turned on and working?
some dashboards behave like this although I can't remember if the deloreans do or not !

As far as the rev counter is concerned, check the wiring connector which plugs into the back of the instrument cluster. Sometimes the connections/tracks come slightly loose from the (flimsy) printed circuit board on the instrument cluster, especially if you have had to remove the cluster recently. Thankfully they can be bent back into place (ask me how I know :wink: )
