Hate to bring up an old post, but are you guys sure you don't have the distributor to hei module wires reversed? The car will run, but with sputtering issues. Just an idea...

I barely drove it, but it held steady for a day. Then parked itself at 12v instead of all the way left. The next day it was reading max 18v, but I checked with my voltmeter and it was 14.5 running. Then it parked at 18v. after awhile it just stayed at 18v and that's it. The 2nd gauge (Bosch)...

Thank you, I'll try a 1amp fuse this time. Ordered another gauge, but trying to figure out how I'm killing them. Would a weak ground kill a volt gauge? I used the same nut that a little ground strap connects to under the steering column. I thought these volt gauges were pretty simple and foolproof?

Sounds like ballast resistor. Make sure it is not in upside down, and has a sealed back. I had an issue with a new single ballast that I had recently replaced. Took awhile to figure out, the back of the new resistor was exposed, usually they come sealed up at the back... After I washed the car...

Does anybody know what kills a volt gauge? If it's shorting out, which is weird, since both gauges initially worked fine, what size fuse would protect the gauge? 1amp or 5amp good enough?

I replaced the amp gauge and did the bypass, then installed a new disassembled sunpro volt gauge in the cluster... Wired it to the fuse block for positive and the other wire to a ground bolt. It worked fine for a couple days and then hit 18volts maxxed out and will not move. My volt meter says...

Looks like someone playing a bad joke. Aluminum paint on an iron head, just look at the overspray on the manifold studs...

If you could ship to 98230, I'd be interested :)

I'd buy them in a heartbeat if they were closer!

:D happened to me after 4 years. Much better to find out while engaged, than after the wedding. sloots gonna sloot :) Best thing that ever happened to me... Shortly after that, I found a girl with **** star looks, and a ridiculous sex drive, who rocked my world, then also left for another dude...

I drive new GTR's at work every so often. You have to do something extremely stupid to go sideways like that. They take off like rocketships, and have traction control out the ***. (Not that I ever drive them hard or anything :angel1::angel1: )

First, my condolences to the victims and families affected by this pointless act of aggression. In Canada, I bump into quite a few aggressive dimwits on a daily basis. Luckily for me, by law, they cannot carry a gun. Now, I understand how easy it is to procure guns in the mighty U.S. and...

This would lower the divorce rate by 95%, and likely the marriage rate by 70% Good plan!

:D Aggressive people are silly. Life's too short to get upset while driving a car. Drive defensively. You won't crash as often.

That sucks, man. Remember to always trust the gut instinct.
