Re: My new project truck!

Today I temporarily installed the gauge pod, after I wired the gas sender for the first time. I wired the temperature gauge weeks ago after I repinned the gauge plug. The temperature gauge works perfectly, as does the gas gauge (no more surprise dry tank!). But the battery gauge did not move at all that I could tell. The needle of the one in my 68 stays directly in the center, but never moves. I wired the battery gauge with one wire on the alternator, and one to the junction block. I wonder if this is normal?
Next up is to find a place on the engine to install the copper oil pressure line. I have had trouble locating one so far.
Stay tuned!
