Re: Temperature gauge and fuel gauge quit working simultaneously after valve job

Don't understand the question. I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer. Haven't been in a dc voltage puzzle quite like this before. Been reading some and am now looking at that original alternator and maybe relatives thereof. I'll do as you say and get back with info. Car is not at my home or work ...

Re: Temperature gauge and fuel gauge quit working simultaneously after valve job

After running motor for ten minutes, shutting it off for ten minutes turned the key and got silence. She blew that big 'ignition' fuse in the little box at the positive battery post. Smoked it good. .....everything was fine a few minutes ago. So I wonder if this is possibly related to the gauges not...

I will try to find the answer to your question. It may be a few days before I can answer as I have other irons in the fire I must attend to. Sequential prioritizing to keep the lights on. Thanks

1993 240 gauges

My completed valve job on a 1993 240 went well enough, but now my fuel and temp gauges don't work. Thanks ahead of time for your positive input

Re: Temperature gauge and fuel gauge quit working simultaneously after valve job

Thanks again for your help. Yes the wire is connected to the sending unit. I should check that wire for continuity I suppose. Did I read somewhere that those two gauges were powered by a 'voltage stabilizer'? Or is it just coincidence that they both decided not to function after valve job? Hmmm........
