A few things have been going on in my comanche. Some from when I bought it, some a little more recent. The easiest thing to do is list them seperatley i guess.
Gas guage has never been accurate. It constantly sweeps when I go down the road and the low fuel light comes on at about half a tank full. No idea why, it's been like that since i got it. Now I use the trip as the gas guage.
Cruise control has never worked. I don't know what circuit it runs on so i can't even check the fuses. Heard it could be the little yellow box under the dash or the contacts in the multi-switch.
Temp guage did work for a while, then after I changed out the thermostat, it started reading extremely high like it was overheating, but it wasn't. A week later, it just quit. No reading. I tested the temp sensor on the thermostat housing according both of my service manuals and determined it was faulty. New one. Nothin. Was told it could be the temp switch on the back of the head. Replaced it. Nothin. Now I just live with it.
Not much of a problem, but kinda annoying. My speedo sensor went out a while ago, and ever since i replaced it, it seems to be fast by about 2 mph. I know that when I got stopped for doin 70 in a 60 it was dead on. Now, when i pass all those radar things that tell you how fast you are going compared to the speed limit, it says i'm 2 mph slow. I though it could have been the radar devices but the same thing has happened at multiple locations in different counties. That and everybody seems to want to pass me when I'm doing the speed limit. Could this be a result of the sensor?
FYI: It's a 91' eliminator 4x4 automatic with a 4.0 HO. It does have 30x9.5 tires, so I don't know if it will make any difference. Any help would be great.
