CS Dept. Lines: 19 From: rob (Rob McCurley) <> I am having a problem with the gas gauge of my 65 Cutlass. When I start the car, the gas gauge moves from just under full to well past full ('pegged' is the term I believe) regardless of the amount in the tank. This behavior started suddenly. Does anyone have experience with this type of problem? I would suspect a short rather than an open circuit, but can't find anything obvious. My experiences with local mechanics suggests that this may be beyond their area of expertise. I would appreciate mail if have any suggestions.
