Thank You Everyone ! Great advice and a lot of things to try ...... I'll get started this week as my damn job is keeping me from doing any type of repairs right now ! errrrrrrrrrrr thanks again ! Mike

Thank You KitCarlson- thanks for explaining - I guess I will start by tracing wires an checking grounds to make sure those aren't a factor thanks again! Mike

Hey Guys, just finished putting a new temp gauge in the cluster of my 68 Dart GT - old one didn't work but once and then never again - bought the new gauge from Classic Industries - everything hooked up and cluster back in dash. When I turn on the key - the temp gauge needle goes all the way...

yeah - that's what I was thinking also - I guess I'll have to lay off the caffeine for a couple of days first !

That's a great looking car! LOVE the striping !
