Fuel gauge position

Quick question. When the key is in the off position, where should the fuel gauge needle point. I took mine a part and I think I need to turn it a couple inches. Thx Matt

I would go fill it up with gas then reset the needle to full.

Re: Fuel gauge position

I've seen them stay still, I've seen them drop to almost empty... I had one in my old 69, it would drop to the 6 O'clcok position... scared the ca-ca outta me when it started doing that!
