RUSTY Cuda
In over my head!
Ordered the wiper blades so I can get those on.
I'm going to have to find that angled cable and see what's happening there. I forgot I have a 1970 dash structure in the basement, and I compared the flat-bracketed cable to that. I don't see where that would go either. The angle in that dash seems a bit more severe than yours, but it's really hard to say... the structure should be the same all five years.OK, definitely an angle in the dash, looks like there might be just enough straight to mount a straight one all the way left, looks like another hole far left too?

I was really hoping that scraping the paint off the lines would've solved it. Did you put stainless lines on the car? The originals were unplated steel, but even the non-stainless ones are plated. Can't say if it conducts worth a damn, because mine's got a hokey-ass ground wire setup. I can't use the factory strap because it's 1/2" feed and there's no steel line nearby.K, had trouble getting a good reading between the fuel line & the ground strap, I had clear coated the lines, so I scratched it around to peel the paint & took it off & squeezed it tighter.
Moved the side on the tank end around to scratch that into the metal, got the reading now, my ohm meter must be off I got a higher than full reading on the wire post to base?
Now straining my eyes when I put the key in the guage does move a tad, there a white line behind the needle that ends shortly after, it moved enough to cover the line, but not even to the first line on the gauge.
I put in another 5 or 6 gallons, NO effect, so now I wait till I burn off some gas & pull the sender & see what that is looking like?
That is the same thing mine does. I thought it was moving, put more gas in it, and the gauge stayed on empty. I tried all the tests, everything should be working, but it isn't. Keep my tank full I guess.Now straining my eyes when I put the key in the guage does move a tad, there a white line behind the needle that ends shortly after, it moved enough to cover the line, but not even to the first line on the gauge.
I guess I would've expected more out of OER. Then again, they're simply a division of Classic Industries, so perhaps not. I don't deal with Classic and have bought very few OER parts through other vendors.Well I thought I was buying good stuff, I think it all & the gas tank came from the same place, where it's made??? probably china!
