    Tail of the Dragon

    I've done it on my bike several times. Amazing, nothing else I could compare it to; going back to TN/NC for the third time this September. Many other great rides in the area such as the Cherahola Skyway.

    So.... anybody ready to start talking about alternative gauges for the FGT?

    As of today, the Poll on this forum titled "Have you had a gauge failure?" shows a failure rate of 36.89% with 103 votes cast. The problem is far reaching and its full magnitude may prove to be the car's achilles heal with the potential to significantly impact resale value. I'm sure many that...

    Is there anyone out there that still believes that the failure rate is within an acceptable level? Worse yet, there appears to be no help on the horizon and the one person that may have been our best hope for getting this problem resolved isn't around any longer. Pretty sorry situation. Ford...

    It does not. When the amp powers up you can hear the muffin fans spinning. When it's all said and done, the gauge problem will be just that, a gauge problem, not caused by anything other than the fact that the gauges are junk.

    Gauge Issues, new information, please read and respond

    When my voltage gage failed, I tested the battery and charging system (which I did not do when my fuel gage failed). The battery (original BTW) showed 12.4 volts and the alternator output was 14.2 volts; perfect for both! Thanks for the brainstorm nonetheless!

    Happy B-Day Mr. Shadowman

    To the man that has garnered the heartfelt respect and admiration of those fortunate enough to have gotten to know him, Happy Birthday my friend! A long time ago a friend said to me that "nature has a way of balancing things out", and noted the 1st law of physics which is "for every action...

    I haven't logged on in several days and was surprised by the level of activity and emotion this topic has generated. I indicated to DBk that I would send my 2nd failed gauge to him. While I greatly appreciate DBK's willingness to extend himself, I did not follow through - my car hasn't even...

    Maybe I'm just getting old but the gauge problems I've encountered got me thinking the unthinkable.
