Daughter and friend driving back from beach at long red light. Gas gauge moves all the way past full and temperature gauge pegs at the same time. Expect a wire short somewhere - any thoughts...they are on the side of the road till I can get there.....
 
Don't sweat it.

Crazy guages. Happens all the time. It will go away. Mine does it worse when the tank is full for some reason.

Linky from the FAQ
 
Greg, thanks for doing the search for me...would never have thought that would be in the FAQ area. Perfect solution to my problem - I HOPE!

Thanks again....and my daughter says thanks too - she has been sitting on the side of the road in the hot sun till I just released her based on your response.
 
Very common. I have fixed mine twice and it came back both times. Still kinda freaks me out when it happens.
 
Buying and installing a new fuel gauge is the fix. Less than $40.
