Furgus,
When my regulator (not resistor, which I don't believe there is one), both
my temperature and fuel gauge both read low, so I suspect that you have a
bad dash regulator. It turned out that there was a high resistance
connection where one of the brass rivets connected the electrical
connection to the bi-metal strip inside. After 33 years I figure that this
regulator has more than served its time!
Peace,
Pat
