Hey all, looking for a new gauge panel for a '85 fj1100. Either the whole set up, or just a good, non bouncing fuel gauge.

Let me know if you have one. Located in Phoenix AZ.  :good2:

Ryan,

Can't help with a fuel gauge for you, but a bouncing fuel gauge is often caused by flakey ground connections at the gauge, or maybe at the sender.  Of course, if you replace the gauge, you will probably repair the corroded grounding connection as you work, so you can easily be convinced that the new gauge was the answer.
Cheers,
Red
P.S. Life is too short, and health is too valuable, to ride on cheap parade-duty tires.

Or you are missing the buffering fluid from the gauge?
I think someone here said it can be added again.
