I bought a '75 244DL 2 two months ago, so far its been great. The car looks and runs great. It only has 77,000 miles. Here is my problem. When I start the car in the morning, the fuel gauge doesn't register, and the amp light is lit. Then after I let it warm up for roughly 5-10 min. the light goes out and the fuel gauge works fine. This only happens when its cold outside. If I wait until its warm outside it starts normally. I suspect a ground problem but thats only a guess. Or maybe this is just a quirk of a 26 year old car.

Thanks for your help kgp
