Yes, you will end up unplugging the feeback part, but you have to do it at the right time. There are lots of write ups on the procedue.

I did it to mine and ran it that way for several years, worked great. However I finally changed carbs and went HEI for the ignition

Hmmm. I just turned my key on cold and unplugged it then swapped in the HEI (after I rebuilt the carb and it STILL was acting up due to ignition/feedback problems)
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!
