(this post is in reference to my 1976 dart swinger )
While i should be happy that no matter how long i drive my dart, the tank always reads full, i am beginning to get really really annoyed with how it is negatively impacting my faith in all gauges.
first i blew out my dash cluster. then i had all new gauges installed. all worked but fuel read E even after brimming.
i got a different Fuel gauge this one "ohm 73/10" as instructed but now it reads F even after houyrs of driving.
the mechanic is im sure happy to keep having me drop it in and to charge me for hours that result in nothing but confusion and malfunction.
all the other mechanics in brooklyn NY that i have contacted REFUSE to work on electrics in my car, even a company called "brooklyn classics" i kid you not said they wont work on a car "that old"
i am in desperate need of awareness on the subject and advice on how to proceed. i am otherwise guessing my fuel levels and it really sucks.
i am unable to get the cluster out completely for some reason and i am unable therefore to fit a new gauge in myself, nor do i know exactly how to calibrate.
if anyone could tell me how to get dart cluster out and what gauge to buy and how to calibrate i will (attempt to ) do this myself!!
to hell with all the mechanics in the whole damn city!!
