So lets say you are looking at the cluster from the back and the fuel gauge is on the right there are two on top and one in the middle below them.

Re: Fuel Gauge Question

not sure how you would wire it with an aftermarket harness and no circuit board. the two upper studs are for wiring the gauge, the lower middle was to hold it in the gauge pod, and probably ground the gauge also. I have had a couple apart and the lower stud has no wiring connection. Also the 2 uppers have a diode of some sort attaching the 2 together. I am guess one side is hot lead and other is for the fuel tank sender. I don't know if matters which way it is hooked up, I do know that a gauge head from an 85 chevy will bolt right in and work, looks pretty cool to, changed it on my buddies truck, also swapped in the face to the 85 speedo, wet sanded the 69 numbers off the gauge lens and buffed it out. Will try to get a pic if anyone wants to see how it looks.
