A lot of people don't have to shorten it between 8 1/14 and 8 3/4. It's not much of a difference.

I guess it was cached but I was seeing the original listing until I reloaded the page. Then I saw the junk one GTX John was probably seeing with no option to see the original. The other thing ebay is doing is being more vague with their search results.. look for a chrysler part and you get...

This is the original

I would guess that's probably it since I know I changed the guage but don't know if I changed that board or not. There's no danger, the guage is still accurate or at least mine was despite whatever makes the light come on.

Hood off, an engine sitting there... hmmmm. Having both GM and these cars that vintage there are things to love and hate about both of them.

My 88 does the same thing. The first time it did it it freaked me out. Guage accurate, light not. Changing guage didn't help. I got used to it.

It's probably one of those things that they deal with their own supplier who can't get it and being a chain they are limited to what they can do sourcing it on their own. It's not even a warrantee problem when it was damaged by them from the start It's their problem.

Push for your money back. They shouldn't have charged anything when they cracked it anyway.

I was considering it the second time around but got busy and missed it. I thought it was a good price. I still have those add on electric chokes I'm curious to try sometime.

There are or were a few different companies making them. Mine is Mexican and the blue strip on the top is wider then any other I've ever seen.

How far is it off the bottom? I've never paid attention to that and only dropped it in. I'd keep it a bit off the bottom, the gas will get mixed up anyway but when the sock deteriorates or falls off you don't want the pipe right at the bottom sucking in any sediment that might be there.

When the metal tube isn't submerged. The sock is only a filter of sorts.

With both having the same problem my first guess is also linkages and was going to mention what OCG said. I've never had a problem with the arm difference, I think I'm actually using one on my 727 off a 904 but never know what might have been changed over time especially if parts are hard to...

I didn't notice much missing. It was relisted for $45 and sold for $75.

It would be simpler to swap out the whole axle, if you can get one where you are, and actually preferred because the 7.25 you probably have now isn't known for its strength. You wouldn't want to put a lot of time and money into the gear change only to have it grenade. Does your axle have a...
