Re: will other gas gauges work?

Should be able to swap it out with any fuel gauge (that says unleaded fuel, not diesel) from 78-87. They have the same shape and mounting holes, and the area underneath for 2 indicator lights.

*edit*
Next time I'll read all the posts first.
My only suggestion on finding a good spot for the needle, is to fill the tank 100% and put it on full. The needle does not bottom out w/out power or anything, it stays where it was last even w/out power. I just checked my truck, cycling the ignition does nothing, needle does not move. Plus the two gauges I have on my shelf, they both have different readings like it is just staying where it was last.
