The Power Major and the Super Major had the same gauges, except for the tachometer. If your Major has a Minimec injector pump, the tach is driven off of the governor and turns counter-clockwise. The Power Major and the vacuum-governed Super Majors turned clockwise. The FMD had totally different gauges.
