Dave,

You need to trace in on the schematic, but it sounds like you're losing pow=
er to the Voltage Stabilizer, assuming it's down stream from the turn signa=
l flasher. You can bypass the VS, both gauges will read high when full and =
hot, to see if it's the cause, but it sounds to me like that circuit is los=
ing power. It doesn't sound like a ground issue to me.


It's not fun removing those gauges. It seems like removing the tach makes i=
t easy to get to the VS on the back of the speedo. (unless I have that back=
wards)


Good Luck,

Sloane

Hey all;

I have been trying to track down the gremlin that's keeping my fuel and tem=

from working. I'll start up the car and those two gauges don't function (th=

and oil pressure gauges work fine). After maybe 15 or 20 minutes of driving=
