Recently had some major engine work done on my 74 914 2.0. Car runs great except the temp gauge is acting funny. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it stops working completely, and, most recently, the needle was twitching slightly in time to the turn signal when it was blinking. Thanks for any help you can give me.
So sorry for my first post. I accidentally wrote fuel gauge in the body of the post instead of temp gauge (which is in the heading). My apologies for sending people on a wild goose chase. |

Could be as simple as a loose connection. Have you spoken to the repair shop? did the condition exist prior to their work Our 914's are quite basic to work on, you might want to purchase a Haynes or Clymer repair manual for reference |

Yes, I have spoken to the shop about it and they are non-responsive. No, the condition did not exist prior to their work. |
