Hello, all.
Have run in circles in the restoration process around gauges. The original
Temperature Gauge had a snipped capillary, so swapped out for a (TR-4?)
electric temp gauge. Converted to an altenator, so the Amp Gauge doesn't do
anything. Bought a series of fuel gauges from e-bay after the original stopped
working. Sent the whole mess to Mo-Ma but over $700 later, attempts to coax
cooperation from a guy with an accent and attitude there,and a fuel gauge that
stopped working after 6 months, I am ready to call it quits.
Am thinking of converting to SunPro 2 inch gauges with black dials and chrome
bezels, which are a nice match for the car. Only thing that may not be
convertible is the fuel guage, which has to match with the sending unit.
Has anyone ever swapped out their standard Triumph gas sending unit by
retrofitting a mounting plate? Advice on a sending unit?
