your foot...the more you push the gas pedal the higher the gauge goes, otherwise... a bad gauge (most expensive--and rare) or a bad SIGNAL to gauge(less expensive and common)...read up on the circuit testing..:) everyone should have a manual for their vehicle, and the local library should have a SHOP manual available in the reference section--make copies of the right info and read up..you'll be a pro in no time ...good luck:)
