Turn the car on?
























What kind of gauges mechanical or electric? Stock or aftermarket?

Did both gauges fail at the same time?

The oil gauge should be electronic and the senders do go out from time to time.
The boost gauges should be mechanical and have a vac line somewhere. Just look for the vaccum hose that runs into the car and track it down. It most likely fell off or has a split or tear in it.
