Question A strange thing happened.

I have a 90 7.3. It has factory gauges. The oil pressure and temperature usually stay at the "o" in normal on the gauge. I was out driving and I stopped and turned a corner, and the gauges went up. The temp and the oil pressure went from the o to the L in normal, and my fuel gauge which was reading 1/2 tank went up to 3/4. After about five miles I came to a stop and turned another corner and they went back to normal readings. The amp meter never changed. Anybody have any idea? Thanks for any help.

Sounds familier, like we were just doing this in another thread.

Thanks again. I didn't know there was such a thing. But I will find it.
