You use the same tester to test both temp gauges cold, middle and hot and and fuel gauges empty, half and full. They both react the same to the same ground resistance? It seems that other than the fact that the terminals on the back are mirrored, the mechanical innards should be the same? An...

70 Dart 318 Well, I guess I screwed up. The engine was running and I was rearranging the heater hoses because I saw they were riding on the top of the alternator. I guess I got a hold of the dark blue field wire and pulled it off it's spade connector on the alternator. It made a bright blue...

Wow! There are a lot of posts on fuel gauges. Mine moves but when the tank id full, sometimes it reads a hair over half and sometimes it reads 5/8. It never goes above that. I might even fill it and have 1/2 on the way home and them 5/8 in the morning. When it reads empty, it's empty. I've...

Has anyone replaced their dome lamp with an LED lamp? Less heat on the plastic lens? Just wondering...

I'll try to give as much detail as I can. Charging systems have always been my weakness. 1970 Swinger 318 with a two field alternator. My dash ammeter started dropping to discharge always at idle. Approaching a turn, my turn signal would make the needle wave back and forth between charge and...
