Swapping out the voltage stabilizer by itself did not resolve my fuel gauge or temp gauge problem.
The stabilizer is giving out the correct voltage but the gauges were not working so I pulled the dashboard and decided to start eliminating potential problems. I ran a new wire from the stabilizer to the fuel gauge and a wire to ground.
Gauge one didn't do anything, Gauge two did nothing, but gauge three from the parts bin worked. YEA!!!
A step in the write direction. So I hooked that gauge to the wire going to the tank, nothing. I went under the hood where the main harness connects to the rear harness. The rear wire was in good shape continuity, and the front harness was good. I tested both and they seems to be fine but the connector between the two harnesses was a bit corroded. I cleaned the bullets a bit and used a new connector.
Fuel gauge fixed!!.

That is all I have time for tonight but tomorrow I hope to get the temperature gauge working. Problem is I don't have 3 of those..
