Did you plug it in backwards by chance?

The fuel gauge on both look funky,  on the 3/4 it looks like it didn't get plugged in straight, they are a bit finicky to get it plugged in straight.

I really don’t think so, because when I went to verify the plug was still working with the dummy-light gauges it was fine and I made sure to keep the orientation

The fuel gauge on the 3/4 looks just like the one I currently have with the dummy lights? Or do you mean the circuitry in the back?

I mean how its way past full, that usually means the sender side is grounded out IIRC, which is why I was wondering how you plugged it in.

What about the cleaner gauge cluster being all the way empty?

 

and I can’t confirm but I’m 99.9% certain that the fuel gauge on the dirty one didn’t move at all when I plugged it into the truck and started it

I hate it when "simple" upgrades become super complicated.   you should post this up in Tech.  not everyone reads the projects section and you'll get more eyeballs and hopefully more ideas.

I have swapped in a 92 ho setup and my fuel reads backwards now. So the more i drive the fuller the tank gets.

Sounds like a super power if you ask me

I’m hopefully going to work on it tomorrow so I’ll double check some things first and then give that a shot. Thanks for the heads up!

Well I have no updates in regards to the gauge cluster. We moved and I’m starting a new job plus my masters program started back up so I’ve been busy! Finally got around to bringing the truck down to the new place to find out someone cut the catalytic converter 👎 made for a awfully loud drive and is definitely discouraging. But the good news is the truck has a garage!!!!

I see why you moved.

Would you happen to know if they got an O2 sensor or not based on that picture? I just thought about it while I’m at work 

[Pete M]

O2 sensor is up in the header
