Yes oil is always at H with, or without key in. Seems like it might move a smudge though, with the key on.
Temp is always at low no matter how long the engine is on.
John is coming back out in a few weeks. He said we'll pull the dash face off and figure it out.
I thought I'd be ready with a couple new gauges in case they are needed.
If I don't use them I can either save them or sell them at Carlisle.

Those old gauges are unreal how they are supposed to work. They get hot, then turn off, then get hot.......That is how they work. If they don't work they are probably burnt out....On my 66, I calibrated my gas and Temp gauge with a 1K variable resistor, in line, used half tank of fuel, and a known good temp gauge, adjusted the variable resistor, till the gauges read correctly, measured the set value on the variable, with a VOM. Then purchased a resistor to match the value, installed in line, now they work perfect. That is using a home built 5v solid state gauge regulator.

Well this is interesting.
Plastic shown has no part number.

The replacement 2525254 part number listed turns up a photo from ebay of this one.

And here's s a link to a 2084467 with box
NOS Mopar fuel filter 1960-78 all 5/16 w/logo 2084467 | eBay

The guys here seem to agree with what you've written Tim.
Plastic version was used through 67, and 68 for SS cars.

And Bill Rolick has about half dozen versions of that same part number, including plastic.

I am pretty sure the plastic filter was used on the assembly line. A lot of info showing that, IMO. And the replacement was metal. My Satellite only has 35K on it, so might have the original filter, BUT I am a little doubtful on the location of it.. another Mopar conundrum,,

Will try. 4:30 am I was up anyway and heard something outside, and had to open the door and step outside to hear what it was, I was afraid it was windy and maybe a fire.

I read quite a few people are leaving the area, and even the state.

i wonder too if different assembly plants used different filters? It wouldn't be the first time of differences like that between plants. Especially in the mid 60s when the factory race programs were rampant.
 
I was surfing thru the max wedge facebook page, some of the "survivor" and 100 point cars even vary. Some have dual metal filters, one per carb, others have dual plastic filters, like the one you've posted here @Mopar Tim

Plastic would not absorb heat as readily as metal...
 
for what it's worth, they have a pic on that page from the Chrysler museum of a 413 with long rams... with a single plastic fuel filter coming off the fuel pump, then Y-ing to the carbs

And filter is definitely horizontal. where mine is located

That's got a little angle to it - prob based on slanty or small block.

Flip through the Bill Rolicks offerings.
Metal on the assembly line definately at some point in '67. Whether that went onto any 67 model year cars I don't know.
I noticed the plastic filter comes with the spring loaded clamps and the date metal 'assembly line' ones come with the 'keystone crimp' clamps.
 
For what it's worth, this is a supposedly, 100 point award winning Plymouth Belvedere Max Wedge Car.
