I must warn you that most of the gauge cleaner programs are more trouble than what they are worth. They have a bad habbit of removeing .cab files from your gauge folder since to them thy are not a guage.
The easiest way is to put your gauges inside the aircraft folder instead of the gauge folder, that way when you remove the plane the gauges it used sre also gone as well.
If you use one I strongly suggest you back up all of the gauges in it before you use it just in case. 8)

Everyday I know that I don't know anything ,so if i put the gauges inside of each add-on aircraft folder,(for  Example: tupelav 152b gauges)the system will take it directly from Its own folder, am I right,Gary?

You place the gauges inside the panel folder. They don't go in a seperate panel. Simply copy over the .gau & .cab files into the panel, that's it.

Simple innit ;D

With most panels you can put the whole mess in the panel folder, but with the russian addons i wouldn't take the risk.

Why would Russian addons be any dfferent?

PS. There is no risk at all. If the gauges don't work in the Panel folder (& I see no reason why they wouldn't) simply move them to FS9\Gauges.

I use "GaugeExplorer" which gives you the option of backing up the gauges untill you finally decide it's safe to delete them. Can't remember where I got it, but I know it was free ;D

My gauge folder is presently 262 MB...
So out of a hard drive space of 80 Giga-byte I don't see the point of deleting any of them, and possibly giving me problems in the future... ;)...!
(Whenever I do a Format I save all of them)...).

Just how often do you " do a Format?"

Many Gauge uninstallers to choose from. + Most FS2002 Gauge Uninstallers will work in FS2004.

Look for Manuel Ambulo's Service pack & Gauge uninstaller here for a start.
