You could find someone with a 5.4 have them send you a pick of where the oil gauge is at idle the you could go in and try to redo out maybe it'd help

Pull the needles off and see if they have the little pegs to stop them. If not you can just glue some small pegs on them.

I am gonna pull the cluster out and see if it is just an overlay (fingers crossed) and I took a pic of a stock one with key off so I have a basis to go by. Now I just have to figure out how to get the cluster out.

Youd be better off with a picture of one on and warmed up the needles won't go back on straight if its not on

X2 let it warm up for about 5 minutes and take a pic. Then position it back on after idling the same amount of time.
