Drove my car on Sunday and both gauges worked as they should.  It seems the terminal cleaning did the trick.  I hope this helps anyone who might encounter the same problem other than the IVR failing.

I finally had time to investigate the gauge problem.  I found the ground wire that plugs in the connector located on the IVR mounting post was half way out.  Pushed it all the way in and tried the gauge.  It worked, but pulsed slightly.  I removed the wire and cleaned the spade and brass connector, also cleaned the connections on the IVR.  After reconnecting all connections and testing, the fuel gauge worked with no pulsing.  I then started her up and both fuel and temperature worked perfectly.  Next test will be a drive this Sunday.  Hopefully, both gauges will work as they should.

I enjoyed watching...thanks for posting.

My car is a May 23, build and it has an open system.  If you have a zero (67200 or 67210) as your third numeral, you should have a cap like the one pictured with AUTOLITE stamped on it.

Welcome aboard!

I know who he is and He should know better.  Looks like the shock tower brace on my '65 Fairlane wagon.

Thanks for the tip.

While driving my '67 GT-350 last Sunday my temperature and fuel gauges stopped working.  Everything else works but the gauges.  I am thinking the IVR died.  Any simple checks before I remove the cluster?

Thanks,

Quite a battle at the end.  I thought it might reach $300K.

Congratulations on your sale.  Hope the new owner has as much fun as you had.  I enjoyed watching you run around the track.

I am running them as well in both GT-350's.  No issues over the last 35 plus years.

I wonder why it has stalled at $35,250?

I would say just like some BaT auctions, bidders are waiting for the final countdown.  Bidding will probably pick up with a day or two before the auction's close.

Good luck with the auction, Craig.  I enjoyed watching you drive the Sonoma circuit.

Thanks, I needed a good laugh this morning.

I do not mind the question asking, items to sell, or wanted to buy.  Many folks have learned a lot from the questions that have been asked and if I know an answer, I will chime in unless someone else beats me to it.  The Forum has provided me helpful information, which I have used to correct items on my car that were done incorrectly when I restored my car back in 1990.
