i was thinking of yanking the icm from Survivor since her engine is messed up but i'm not sure if it would work since she is a stock 83 and Eagle Eyes is an 80.

My ICM just went bad over the weekend.  NAPA has a replacement, in either a cheap one or higher priced one.  They had it in stock in the store.  Part number is TP 40.

FYI, if both ICMs have the same number of plugs/wires, then they will interchange.
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!
