Sharing power and ground connections ???

['70_Duster_340]

Any problem w/ running multiple gauges on the same power and ground sources ?? Since there's only a handful of fuses in the block, and so many gauges, does it hurt to run 2 or 3 off the same supply ?? Which gauges draw more ??

Also, what's the best way to connect a hot wire to the fuse block ?? The spade connecters seem to fall out a lot .. Is there a better way??

Thanks,

Kenny

the guages don't draw much power. Use 1 supply for all of em. Same for grounds.

Thanks, I did pretty much that today .. I ran the 3 gauges to one fuse and the tach to a different one, and already had a good ground on the bottom of the dash that I grounded everything to. I found some small spade connectors that fit in really tight next to the fuse ends, so I don't think they're gonna come loose anymore...
