400090262178, 150411717555 These are eBay #s for the voltage limiter that I
highly recommend.  Not the sellers but the limiter they are a bit pricey but
well worth the money as opposed to replacing burned dash, gauges & wiring
that can happen with the relay type that came with our cars.  Redline gauges
imports them and often has them on eBay a little cheaper than on their
website.  The symptoms you described are a classic bad voltage limiter.

Subject: Fuel gauge repair?
 
Any tips on diagnosing a faulty fuel and temperature gauge?
 
I checked the 1962to1965 tech site.  The first couple of articles are
Stale links and don't work anymore:
# Solid state update for a MoPar Instrument Cluster Voltage Regulator
# Diagnosing And Repairing Faulty Instrument Gauges
 
The others may helpbut are more for a 68.
 
This is a 1963 Polara 500 with a 383.  My symptom is that both the
Fuel and temperature gauges read 0they never did work so it's not
The result of anything I did recently.  The voltage gauge works fine
And dash lights work fine.  It's a new sending unit since I recently
Coated the gas tank inside.
 
I'm not real savvy electricallybut I have some basic knowledge and a meter.
 
As alwaysthanks for any help.
