I forgot about my other new gremlin that appeared in the TR-4 this weekend.
I'm driving down the highway and check the fuel gage and though "either I'm
getting GREAT gas mileage, or that gage is not reading right.
A minute or two later I looked at it and watched it slowly but surely creep
up to full.
NICE. What's up with that.
It stayed there for about 35 miles / half and hour . . . and then dropped
back down to about where I figured it should be.
A couple of short, in town trips that night and the next morning . . all
looks normal.
Then the trip home last night (did I mention the pouring rain) and it does
the same thing.
Moseys its way on up to "F" and sits there a while.
About 15 minutes later it has dropped back down to where it should be.
The Temperature gage never showed any weird behavior.
My guess is that the Lucas spirits are rebelling against the nifty new
electronic flasher I installed.
As usual . . . all suggestions or ideas are welcome.
