Don't you guy remember me talking about Cluster backs and Printed circuits being different for a couple of years

talking about like this

P.s go **** your self.

Am I the only one that noticed that the fuel gauge is on the wrong side of the gauge cluster?

Looks like someone put it back together wrong, lol.

No, my 78 and 79 both had it right there...besides...looks like the white bezel enclosure dealie is molded for the gauges to fit like that...

Every dentside that I've owned ('79 Bronco, '75 F-250 4x4, '77 F-250 Fulltime 4x4, '73 F-100 4x4, '77 F-250 4x4, '74 F-250 2wd) has had the fuel gauge on the left, bottom of the gauge cluster.

I'm not saying that you're not right, I've just never seen one that had it on the bottom right on the cluster.

Also, if that is a '78 or '79 gauge cluster, then the 100mph speedo has been swapped in from an older cluster.

They were not an option for '78 or '79.

My fuel gage is on the left too. Maybe that one is left over from the australian market.

Yup, I know at least the 73s are red, since mine is, and its not blindingly bright either.
My fuel is on the left to....

i knew that was wrong...


but didn't someone say they owned 2 trucks that had them on the right?

 

[Old Ford Blue]

Is that Tex's???

 

[m78]

So will the temp gauge read cold when your out of gas and hot when you fill it up ?

i think so, or the other way around, i'm confused .... because its in essence the same guage, just a different face.

Lol! Ha ha ha. See why you don't work on trucks when you're drunk?
Drinking while working on truck is one thing, when you get to the "drunk" stage, it's time to take a break and sober up.

On my 78 the fuel gauge in in the lower left corner of the cluster, and my high beam indicator is in the top of the speedometer, and it is a little blue jewel, that shines blue, and my brake warning light is in with the ammeter and temperature gauges on the right side of the cluster, and the fasten belts light is in with the oil pressure and fuel gauges , so I think that someone might have switched the temperature gauge and fuel gauge around when they put their cluster back together. Hope this helps
