Looking for a gas gauge, new or used, for my 63 stepside. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I believe 1964-1966 will not work

Hey Bob, are you sure its bad? Alot of times theres a bad ground that makes them seem bad but they're really ok. Or there's a problem with the sending unit in the tank. Gas gauges last a long stinkin time.

This was the problem with my gauge not working.http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa249/tommyd1963/IMG_20130907_121816_081_zps8966a787.jpg
This float doesn't float... I got a new sending unit for my 62 and it works great now.

LOL, Unfortunately it is the gas gauge, I had a car electrician double check. I do have a new sending unit and it's grounded properly. I'm finding out that a 1960 to a 1963 gas gauge should work????

Any year guage will work. the early and late one have different lettering. Post a picture and i will match what you have. I used to have some nos stuff and the oldtimer I got them from said when the new look came out you could not get the old style any longer. I am heading up to work on some powerlocks at the shop and i will grab some clusters. Barry

What book did that come from? I am having trouble finding wiring for my 65 GMC 1000 series.

Those diagrams are in the back of this. I will scan and post the rest of the diagrams in a few days. Barry
