I seem to be experiencing a strange phenomenon in my 1966 Cruiser where the gas gauge and the temp gauge will both be dead, usually, but not always at the same time, but then during driving they both come to life. Sometimes they die again. I've seen it once where the gas gauge started working, but the temp gauge was dead, but then after a few minutes the temp gauge started working. This is with the car fully warmed up. Could the cold weather cause frost or something in the contacts? But then, that wouldn't account for them going dead again after everything is warmed up. I don't think the two gauges are connected in any way, but they are in the same cluster. Is that a clue? It's really wierd.
Also, has anyone had experiences with turn signals quitting because of blowing fuses? Mine used to work fine, but now if I want them to work, I'd have to replace a fuse probably every time I drive it. It doesn't blow instantly, though. My turn signal lever is a bit wobbly and loose. Could that cause a short? I don't think it's possible, but maybe it is...
