    Question: Hot Foot

    Yes, it definitely helps. I have installed Dynamat and the shutoff valve. Big difference. Put it in on the input side to the heater core. That is the top of the intake manifold heater hose to the heater core.

    Help! I can't believe I have to ask this! Gauge cluster screws.

    Find thread. I see from your picture your gas gage is a problem. Do a search on gages and read it. I forget if it is a ground issue or voltage and the problem may be at the tank. So read before you pull the gage cluster. If some one can find that thread it would be helpful for Dale.

    This is not a hard fix, but you have to get into the center console witch is a pain. If it is broken you have to remove the console and replace the indicator. If it disconnected you have to slip the indicator over the pin on the shifter that moves it. If you have not had the center console...

    climate control lights

    OK already. I have driven my 1977 for 38 years and never thought once about that light. In my opinion it did its job. I never said once it need a better light and that I could not operate the climate controls. For many of those years I drove it day and night without a problem using the...
