Rodents ruined the sender on my temp gauge. Went to see what a new one cost. $80 or more.
The ones I have came with the dash I bought used several years ago except for the speedometer and gas gauge. Only paid $200 for the whole works. Its a sport comp I think 2 5/8". I could go cheaper and get auto gage or summit/jegs with a similar black face. My fitech has a temp reading but it is intake temp and the gauge is in the head. Could just wait for swap meet season next year.

Thank you & the others who replied tooOriginally posted by cstmwgn View PostTrickle charger. I use the NOCO version but I am sure that there are others
The guy I bought the truck from wasn’t aware the wire was there. My battery tender has simple pinch clamps & no inline fuse so I didn’t recognize that it could be related to that.

Youtube says it may be possible to repair the copper line on the gauge. It's worth a shot anyway.Comment

Battery tender.Originally posted by Redline04 View PostAnyone recognize what type of diagnostic tool this might be used for?
Found this wire bolted to battery of the SS when I removed it for winter storage. Bolts in pic are from the +/- terminals of the battery. Wire was tucked up into fender. Absolutely nothing else anywhere near that location so must be for some type of electronic tool. Has 3amp inline fuse.

Gotcha. The Mitten was in my backyard and I still couldn’t make it happen... Georgia would be a no-go.Originally posted by oletrux4evr View Post'Georgia' is next year's version of 'Motoring In The Mitten'.
Not even sure I can HRPT this summer. One graduating HS on June 1st & another headed to Japan for a 6 month Study Abroad program in August is eating up a ton of funds.'86 Monte SS (sold) ~ HRPT 2015, '17, '18 ~ Long Hauler

I really wonder why I am broke after two full scale 351C rebuilds in one year.
