By just getting my hand up there and snugging up wire I was able to get gauge working again. For the valve cover, you will have to remove the bracket going from the ac compressor to the intake. Like I said, my car is a '69 lemans, not sure if the same. I hope this helps.

Grizzle, When the car cools down I'm going out to look for the wire you mentioned on the back of the alternator.

I tried pulling and wiggling the tan wir e going to the sending unit and did not help.
So it looks like the tank is coming down. Looks to be real easy.

Thanks for your help, Larry
