I could use some help from our resident electrical gurus:
My temp gauge moves swiftly up to appox 210 degrees whenever the key is rotated to the run position - even when the engine is off and stone cold.
fuel gauge does not follow suit - goes to approx. 2 gal and stops - which is probably correct (haven't driven lately so not sure).
Installed one of Ed's solid state voltage regulators approx. 18 months ago. I'm thinking a voltage regulator problem would effect both gauges.
The temp sender seems relatively bulletproof (unlikely to fail, but not impossible), and I would expect a burned out gauge to read zero - not high, so what am I looking for??
Thanks in advance to all for your time & consideration!
