- When I took my car out for a spin I found that the temp gauge almost pegged at 250F! After a stress filled moment I also found the gas gauge on full when I know the car was not. Both needles seem to

- There is a 10 volt output instument voltage stabilizer in the dash that could be the culprit. Check the output with a voltmeter and it should be a steady 10v. Since this supplies the temp and fuel ga

- Sounds like the 9V instrument voltage regulator under the dash isn't grounded well. It uses the mounting screw for a ground. Bob Palmer rpalmer@ucsd.edu robertpalmer@paulhastings.com rpalmerbob@adelp

- The Bobs have it right. The instrument voltage regulator is the most likely cause of both gauges going up together. Check out my article on gauges on Tigersunited.com. Stu Listeners, When I took my c

- Anthony, there is a voltage reduction device, forgot the item name, that reduces the voltage to 10 volts constant for these 2 gauges. It is under the dash, rectangular, and easy to check out with a v

- Yes, the ground is provided by the stabilizer mounting screw, so if intermittent, then make sure ground is good. Larry
