---- Hello Chris---Just a quick [ Thanks for the info ]--I dug out about 5 of extra dash cluster units-and one REALLY nice one had those 2 gauges still there--SO sometime this summer-either I----or an old time Chrysler mechanic friend ---will replace them--[ So Thanks again-- Walt Reinecker Stratford Ontario Canada 1964 --300--K--Ram - - - - - - --------------------------- Quoting kmaniak@xxxxxxx: > Hi Walt: > > On the '64, the voltage limiter is built into the fuel gauge.
