Re: 67-72 Chevy Truck fuel gauge diagnostics 101

I pulled my gauge cluster out during my resto and I replaced the circuit strip thing on the back because my temp gauge wasn't working. When I put it back together the gas gauge was at 3'oclock and before that it worked fine. I found out by reaching up behind the dash that I forgot to tighten the two nuts that hold the circuit strip to the gas gauge. As I was tightening the nuts the gauge move to 3/4 full and did not move so I attached a ground wire to the bottom terminal of the gauge and went down and put some gas in it then the gauge move to a bit over full. I did drive it a little bit the gauge is now at the full mark so it did move just not sure if its accurate yet. going to have to drive it a little more and carry a gallon with me.
