Hey all;

I have been trying to track down the gremlin that's keeping my fuel and
temp gauges
from working. I'll start up the car and those two gauges don't function
(the voltage
and oil pressure gauges work fine). After maybe 15 or 20 minutes of
driving, they'll
suddenly kick on and stay on for the rest of the trip. Some trips, they
don't come on
at all. But when one comes on, they both come on. Strangely, when they
don't work,
neither do my turn signals! I've spent the afternoon tracing wires for
power (light
green) and ground wires (green w/blue for temp gauge green and black for
the fuel
gauge). Getting to the gauges can be quite the challenge. Any comments?
Faulty voltage
stabilizer, perhaps? I've replaced that in the past...
