Mike:
Thanks for responding to my posting! The plate on my tank is brass and the switch does not work. It's stuck on Main but the tube to the tank section is plugged?!?! I sure could use the one you have. Please advise total cost, including shipping. Regards, Jim |

Dirk Leegwater still shows his fuel tank plates on his site as "On Sale" (along with some other F8 stuff!). Listed under Canadian Military Parts, then Ford Vehicles.

You need to check your plate to see if it's a chevy one. I believe Ford used a totally different fuel gauge system, with a thermo bi metal arm and points device at each end e.g., sender and gauge . The chev system is a more conventional method with a wiper arm on a wire , thus variable resistance . From memory, the Chev sending unit has 5 holes and the Ford 6 holes . Mike
