    Gas gauge

    Thank you. Will check it out
  2. Thanks very much I will have that checked out. Hope its not the guage as I don't see many out there. Appreciate your help.
  3. sorry , its the gas tank - Avanti parts biz is sending a new one that is not subject to fluctuation and also thinks it may need a second grounds wire.
  4. I just had the sending unit Purchase from Avanti parts Biz Last November A day ago. I also saw a sending unit on Studebaker Parts dot.com whiich is vastly different From the Avanti parts biz unit.Does does anybody know which one might be better or if there's another one out there that's better??? Please help and thanks.

    Update - I had a delay in getting a mechanic to put my sending unit in He finally did it 2 days ago and when I drove it home The gauge was Flipping between 1⁄2 to full and to 1⁄2 to full continuously I purchased the sending it from Avanti.Parts biz Could it be a faulty unit? This is frustrating.
  6. Thank you very much for your prompt response and help -I will probably put a tube running downward so it doesn’t spit up -currently having a problem with car overheating due to to fan relay not working right
  7. On my 1983 it has a small white plastic coolant overflow tank - there is on black hose connected to the radiator hose running from the tank with a plastic cap on it. The other end of the tank has no hose just an opening for the hose. Should there be a hose on that and does it function as an external drain to the ground Outside the car or should it be connected to something. Fyi There is an LT1 engine in this car if that makes a difference. Appreciate any help.or advise Thank you

    My gas guage seems to be stuck on half a tank no matter how much gas is in the car. normally when it’s full it’s on 3/4 of a tank and when it gets near empty it’s around 1/4 of a tank I was living with that, but now it’s stuck. I don’t know if it’s a fuse , the guage or float in the tank. Oddly once in awhile when I start the car Iit will go to full then back to 1/2. not a mechanic any advice would be appreciated thank you
  11. Thanks will check them out
  12. Dan Booth said this item is the cruise control with vacuum hose he guesses my problem may be the master cylinder gotta appreciate that guy 👍
  13. Plus what is the that nose on the brake pedal? I just checked and it's no longer there. I dont knownwho.touched it.
  14. Once in awhile my brakes don't seem to brake at slower speeds and when backing up. Brake booster is only a few years old. When it happens I put the car In reverse and press the brakes hard like the old time adjustment. Not sure if this is doing any good or not. Could it be anything to do with that little hose connected to the brake pedal? Thanks A83
