Hi again,
I should have done this before I did my previous
posting but I did look on our website and found the price list for JC Auto which
quotes $75 for a rebuilt power pack w/exchange. That was all I could find as far
as prices and that doesn't sound "outrageous". Any thoughts on this would
be appreciated.
Working on this car again after all these years has
been quite a trip down memory lane. One memory that popped up this evening
was that occasionally all the gauges except the Amp gauge would occasionally
slowly peg then return to normal. When it did it one time, I smelled smoke
and I took it to the local Imp dealer (this is about 72 or 73) and they replaced
one of the gauges; which one I don't remember. This didn't fix the problem
but it happened rarely and there was never the "smoke" problem AND all the
gauges functioned normally when their little "fit" was over. Any thoughts
on what is causing this? I know there is supposed to be some kind of
voltage limiter attached to one of the gauges, but that's the extent of my
knowledge.
Thanks in advance -
Jim L. in OR
