<snip> I have been trying to track down the gremlin that's keeping my fuel =
and temp gauges from working. I'll start up the car and those two gauges do=
n't function (the voltage and oil pressure gauges work fine). After maybe 1=
5 or 20 minutes of
driving, they'll suddenly kick on and stay on for the rest of the trip. Som=
e trips, they
don't come on at all. <snip>
David-
Those 2 gauges are on the same power circuit.=C2=A0 Have someone sit in the=
 car while idling, monitoring the gauges.
You push on (I think the top terminals of the fuse box (I think)=C2=A0 See =
what that does.=C2=A0 If your gauges come up, then I think you need to repl=
ace the fuse box (not too expensive or difficult (getting the 2 screws out =
is the hard part.)
The TR6 fuse boxes were riveted together.=C2=A0 After 40 years of vibration=
 and corrosion, they sometimes fail.
