Topic: '34 speedo and gas gauge overhaul


lennoxes    -- 11-23-2009 @ 8:41 PM
  Any recommendations? I have the fluid column gas gauge, which looks like a nightmare. Bob's Speedo in Howell, Michigan has a web site which makes me think they know what they're doing...

Also, what do I need to do to the sending unit in the gas tank?!

Thanks,

Greg

You can buy the fluid and fill it yourself.Comes whith instructions. I did mine about 15 yrs ago.Be carful taking it dont break it. its not a fun place to work they never are. Get a trouble lite and take a look.the air in that little line is pushed buy the gas in the tank.more gas more push. the air in the line in turn pushes the fluid up in the tube. Even when your done I would keep track of miles I drive.After a fillup you can go about 150 miles,you have a 14 gal tank so you drive on about 10--11 gal.
