    We no longer have "parts men". we have some young persons who know how to type into a computer, year / make / model and that tells them all they need to know. For giggles I once said 1934 Ford Coupe. they replied "a what"? then I added, it has a 86 SBF without A/C! All I could do was stand there smiling... I don't think their computer went back that far! LOL

    i still have 2 places. most all of the people have been there for years. one gal there has been pulling parts since high school. not much she doesn't know about cars.

    You're lucky Shine, out last real parts store sold out a year ago.

    The local NAPA store here is a joke. Several years ago I went in and asked if they carried any flex hones. The kid looked me me as asked for the year make and model.

    I spend a lot of time looking up my own parts now.

    Google "Fuel gauge signal converter" such as this; https://www.tanksinc.com/index.cfm/p...rod/prd748.htm
    Other brands about $25 and up.
    Might be the easy way out.

    That's a great way out! Pretty cool idea actually! Makes what we have work together . I'm not sure which one he'll choose as I did find some "less expensive" options. LOL, thanks for the help.
