DESCRIPTION & OPERATION

Instrument panel is composed of speedometer housing,

tachometer and instrument cluster gauges.

FUEL GAUGE

System consists of a fuel gauge, an in-tank sending unit, and

appropriate wiring. Fuel gauge is grounded through variable resistor

of sending unit. A float attached to a slide rheostat follows fuel

level and varying resistance increases or decreases indicator reading.

TEMPERATURE GAUGE

System consists of gauge and sending unit and appropriate

wiring. The gauge is grounded through variable resistor of sending

unit. Changes in coolant temperature vary resistance in sending unit,

increasing or decreasing indication on gauge.

VOLTMETER

The voltmeter indicates regulated voltage to provide an

indication of charging system’s ability to maintain battery charge.

OIL PRESSURE GAUGE

The oil pressure gauge system consists of gauge and a

variable resistance sending unit. Gauge needle, attached to bi-

metallic strip, responds to temperature changes.

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
