Gas shows pegged out past full, Temp pegged out past hot(but sometimes comes down to hot mark, Oil Pressure shows only a few pounds pressure but amps are showing Normal. Dash lights etc all seem to be just fine. What has happened? 1969 Y2 Super Bee 1959 Coronet 4 dr Sedan ~ I intend to live forever...so far so good! ~ TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!
