I have a fuel gauge problem.
I posted a week or so ago with the same
problem.The gauge is stuck in the full spot
when the ignition is on.I have tried to
trace the wires down to try and find
a break in the wire no luck.
So I was reading the service manual
and it said I need to use C-3826
tester.
My question is what the heck is a
C-3826 tester?? And how do I get one?
HELP
Chris

John,
There is a place in Columbus, OH that re-lined and arched the brakes
for my G.
Columbus Power Brake
185 E. 5th Ave
Columbus, OH 43201
614-297-7867
Ask for Vince. They did all 4 for me a couple of years ago. He also
told me he was happy to do UPS shipments. I have yet to drive the car
(beginning to wonder if I ever will), but I'm sure the brakes will be
fine (they worked great during the tow to the new house).
Best regards,
Richard Osborne

Hi group,
Got a bit of a shock when I went to Wakefield Brake/Stopping Products
(Wakefield, MA) today to drop off some brake shoes from my 57 for
relining/contouring, and found them to be closed as the owner had passed
away this summer.
Don Verity and I have been going there for some years now (myself
almost 20!), so I can't remember ever buying brake shoes for my 57 or 61
or my wifes 62. I would bring my original shoes and drums to Wakefield
Brake, and they would reline them and contour them to the drums (no
garbage truck sounds) for a very reasonable price.
I then stopped at my friendly NAPA store and had my behind the counter
buddy spend about 1/2 an hour looking in old catalogs and making phone
calls, only to be told that the shoes were no longer available (even for
the 62!).
So, what to do- does anyone know of a brake place that will still
reline shoes?
Or, am I at the mercy of the big buck places in Hemmings?
I guess I was grapling with the concept of my getting older, but it
really hits home when friends and resources in the hobby that you've
come to rely on for years start to disappear.
Any suggestions appreciated.
John

Right on! Bob
Ken Mack is a great friend of the entire Chrysler cause.
I personally am very appreciative of his determination to establish and
maintain the historical record for Chrysler through the Walter P. Chrysler
museum.

Hi Chris,
Chrysler made special tools for this, that and the other thing. Most were
bought by dealers - the arerage garage never had them . You won't need
whatever this tool is to diagnose and repair your fuel gauge problem.
Does the gauge go back down to zero when you turn the ignition off? If it
does not, and stays on "full " all the time, the culprit is the gauge
itself.
If the gauge goes back to "zero" with key off, and pins itself with key on
no matter how much fuel is in the tank, the next step is to unplug the
fuel
sender wire at sender At this point, the gauge should read "empty" with
the key in the "on" position.
If gauge still reads "full" with sender unplugged, then there is a short
in
the wiring between sender and gauge that you will have to locate this
short.
If gauge now reads "empty" with sender unplugged, then the problem is in
the
sender, and that needs to be removed, and either replaced or overhauled.
Please perform this simple diagnostic tests and let us know the outcome.
