Gary Lewis Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 Jim, Thanks for the updates on your gauge "adventure", I'm sure all of us will benefit from your journey. Gary, FWIW, it was a balmy 70 deg today in sunny SC, I really feel for all the folks in the cold, and misery. Didn't get a lot done today, new front wheel bearing yesterday, cleaned up my mess from yesterday, couple other honeydos, got my second Covis vac this morning....All is well, Blessings to all. Bill Jim - Sorry to see you are having so many problems. Did this just happen suddenly? Did Huck's gauges never work right? Bill - We had the 70's yesterday, which prompted me to wash and wax Big Blue. But today a front came in and the temp was only in the 50's, which when coupled with the breeze wasn't conducive to playing with water. But in comparison to what others have had it was very pleasant. And I'm glad you got the 2nd shot. I had Moderna and the 2nd shot gave me some aches and pains for a few days, but nothing to worry about. They say that lets you know it is working.

I only used Huck's flex circuit. My lens was in better shape so I just scraped and painted my needles and swapped the instruments over to that back case (the white plastic part) I still can't figure it out. Everything was working fine. All the connections are bright and shiny. (Remember these are not thermal gauges) I'd found some odd readings to ground, but all the LED lamps were fine. (I added ground jumpers from A & B.) You'd think the oil pressure gauge would fail too. But nooooo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems I read that 6.5V was the norm/proper volts at the plug, this is a resistor wire. Tis a swamp in there. Bill Another FWIW...Temp, BP is normal so far, so good, been taking Tylenol as directed on bottle, as per my Dr. PLEASE!!! talk to a Dr. before taking anything.

It doesn't have a resistor wire or an ICVR. Like I said above, it doesn't use thermal gauges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim - Strange! I don't know what to suggest. Good luck. Bill - You are right on asking the doctor what to take. Mine said not to take ibuprofen as they think it reduces the body's reaction to the vaccine, but they aren't sure. I took Tylenol when I needed it, which wasn't very often. But glad you are doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
