[Roadsters] I Don't Know When I'm About To Run Out Of Gas

[Larry Dziuba]

I have had the same problem since restoring my 68.  Don't have the 
electrical smarts to figure this one out.  Now I will have to see how my 
guages react when roadster is running and off.  This whole conversation 
sounds a but familiar.  Temp guage would not work either.  Seems to me that 
they  both tie into the back of the ammeter.  And is there a resistor under 
the dash that is involved too?  Larry.
