- Hi;
- I have a Nissan Pulsar 89 and lately I have had problems with the gas and
- temprature gauge. The problem happened after a rainy and humid day couple
- weeks ago; although I am not sure if this actually caused it. The gas and
- tempreture gauge simultaneously quit on me and it tells me that I am run-
- ning on empty. The temp. readout also never moves from the sub-cold posit-
- ion. So I have had to time my refuling using the mileage meter; I've been
- lucky so far!
- I have checked the fuses and there is only a fuse for the fuel pump which
- is fine.
- I have seen the fuel needle come up very occasionaly when the car is star-
- ting for the first time in the day and in very cold weather.
-
- Can anybody offer me a hint?
- Thanks in advance for your help.
- Mohammad
