    So I usually take out my Mondial 3.2 for a joy ride once a week for like 30 minutes. Yesterday was no different. Started her up and had a nice ride! At the end of the drive I went to the gas station and filled her up. When I went to start her up, she wouldn’t start! It’s was odd because the speedometer gauge and the RPM gauges are not set at zero, they are at 10.
    What does this mean? I’m sure it’s some kind of message.

    It's not a message, they're always at that level when starting the car. Did you manage to start the car after all?

    It means you've never looked at them properly before because they've always done that and they always will because there's a little pin !

    OMG - just hooked up my trickle battery tender and it started! Hahaha - well my towing experience from the local gas station was a smooth one anyway. Thanks for the replies and fun and safe driving all!

    Maybe the alternator belt has snapped, causing an empty battery. Look at the belt (RH side of the engine) that runs over the water pump at the top of the engine and the alternator at the bottom.
