Good stuff. Thank you. I wish I was more thorough when my '65 panel was out. Certainly could have bench checked the panel and gauges more thoroughly out of the car. Add in a couple so-so grounds, some corrosion at the bulk head connector,... The ground side seems like step one. Battery...

In diagram A, the fusible link should be from the starter relay to the red side of the ammeter. If the two middle bulkhead wires were reversed at the bulkhead, then the gauge sensing may be reversed as well as possible current path when running? This may possibly reverse current through...

http://www.madelectrical.com/electricaltech/amp-gauges.shtml Also, the start switch/ relay hanging up May feed the full ignition voltage to the + coil essentially bypassing the ballast? You can probably pickup a "cheap" volt meter at Radio Shack, Harbor freight, ...<20$

The red and black wire to the back of the ammeter feed through the bulkhead connector. Due to a little corrosion, the firewall bulkhead connection for these two wires may overheat and melt. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=289534 My 65 Dart does not have the middle...

The diagram shows the ballast resistor in an electronic ignition, but highlights the ignition wire ~14 volts on one side (top) and bottom side of resistor feeding the + side of the coil ~8- 10 v. Startup bypasses the resistor. I understand you have conventional points. Ballast resistor...

65 dart should have the instrument voltage regulator in the fuel gauge. Disabled mine and went external. Still adjusting. Gauges maxed out. Mounted in plastic though to prevent short. Going to electronic voltage regulator (firewall) but haven't installed yet. Regulator may be putting out...

A '65 A-body may only be pulling 30-40 amps max. Those amps may have to go through the bulkhead connector. Age and corrosion may add resistance to the bladed connection at the bulkhead, causing heat and possibly melting. The amperage passing though this connector is passing through the...

Found these kits on the internet. $7 http://www.engineeringshock.com/lm317-variable-power-supply-kit.html I like the idea of the printed board if using the capacitors. Wouldn't need the 4 diode bridge, and would it be okay to swap in some capacitors specified in ChargerSource above...

Just received in the mail. Potentiometer reads W 103 143C.

There are several of these out there on the various forums. The one below is one example (http://www.chargersourceguide.com/voltreg.jpg) and includes a potentiometer for fine adjustment. That IC can be placed inside or mounted to the outside of an old regulator (IR) with heat sink. The...

I was thinking about that. R307 looks to be original OEM style ( with points and bi-metallic beam inside). It could be used as replacement for internal IR within fuel gauge as above, just keep the noise capacitor to ignition lead and use several short leads to connect IR to studs...

Early a body fuel gauge with IR (bi-metallic beam with heater and point contact removed). Fuel gauge beam remains to left (S stud)

Back of instrument panel photo (rt-eng) indicating a new IC IR (RT-Eng) attached to back of instrument panel. RT-eng uses an additional lug for the noise suppression capacitor. Installation would appear similar to original IR plug in type or moving former internal IR from inside fuel gauge...

Opened the fuel gauge up on the 65 a body. Disabled the internal instrument voltage limiter (IR) by removing the bimetallic beam on the right. The bi-metallic beam on the left is the fuel gauge mechanism, which uses the third lug (lower left when viewed from the front) for a signal from the...
