fuel Gauge question
Just checking in with everyone to see if your fuel gauge needle stays at F or 1/2 or whatever your fuel level is when you take out your key. Or does it go all the way to empty when you turn the truck off?
Just working out some gremlens with my gauge and wondering what the rest of yours do... BTW i have the square fuel gauge not the round one, I have the fuel gauge next to the oil press on the bottom right, Thanks

Re: fuel Gauge question

Re: fuel Gauge question
I just replaced one in my 65. Before replaceing it would go to full with key on 3/4 key off. With new gauge it stays at a little over 1/2 key off or on.
