Fuel gauge,,,,,,, did the rest of your gauges work properly? if so it is
more than likely the ground strap
Brake lights,,,,, did your interior lights, and dash lights work ? if not
check fuses, if they did work, jumper the wires at the brake light switch, if
they work then, it is the switch,,,, if they still do not work, I would find the
rear chassis harness plug connection, and check for corrusion, both your
taillights and fuel gauge probably go through that same plug,,,

Well the
Polara rolled out of the garage under its own power yesterday afternoon.
What a great feeling after its innards and outards cluttering up my garage
for the last year.
I replaced the fuel sending unit about 4 years ago.
While the car had been in my garage waiting to go back together the gas
guage had been working fine. Yesterday started it up drove it a few miles
and it was ok just low on gas. About an hour later after putting the wheel
covers back on I start it up and the guage is bottomed out below the
E mark.So I shut it off, start it up again same thing. Get some gas
in it, still the same thing. Later took my wife out to DQ as a
little celebration and cruise so while waiting in line the guage starts
to move in the full direction then stopped and went to empty again. I
will check out the fuel sending unit wires and ground strap tonight.Anybody
have any thoughts on that?
Next issue. Brake lights were working fine
before yesterday. Now they are not. Noticed that at Dairy Queen
also when i didnt see my brake light reflection in the big aXX
Navigator behind me. Maybe the switch for the brake light at the pedal? if
so what would be a good source to get it from?
Other than that it
was a great feeling to be back in the bucket seats again all 4 windows
down.
Will post some pics soon.
