Ha! perfect. I sent you a PM and will reply with more info.

Hey Tomorrow Club, by chance were you trying to contact me Via PM and a message on ebay regarding my fuel filter adapters?

That's because Guy never sleeps! ( nothing to do with him being in Germany ) rofl

The linkage is spring loaded internally to allow it to expand lengthwise when the fuel solenoid pushes it down while the governor linkage is trying to pull up on it. It does not go up under fuel pressure. Even with the engine off, the governor is trying to pull the throttle wide open. Despite...

I typically just make a little daisy chain with 1/4" Faston connectors for the gage lights and a snap spade connector on the end, jump from each gage bulb with the Faston's and connect the spade to one of the panel light sockets. Make sure to secure the wires to the wire harness, otherwise they...
