Power to fuel & temp. gauges

[FISHHAWK]

I lose pwr. to the fuel and temp. guages about two to three minutes after first start of the day. Sometimes I will get pwr back to these gauges for another minute or two while driving, but not all the time.I don't know were they are pwr from. Looked at a drawing and it looked like it was coming from a relay inside the ign. relay......thanks for any help. 1988 Kingcab se v6

On the back of the meter gauge assembly, you have to remove it, there is a silver or black box about a 1 in. or 1.5 in in size. This is a dash gauge voltage regulator for the temp and fuel gauge. Replace it . The new one will look like a black box with heat sink fins on it . This is a updated part.
