Very slight air pressure is developed in the gas tank sending unit. The pressure travels through a very small tube to the back of the dash gauge. The pressure displaces a red fluid to the front glass tube. More pressure the higher the red fluid less pressure the lower the red fluid.

Thanks does the ignition have to be on for the system to work?

No, it's basically a mechanical gauge.

Here is what's in the Ford Service Bulletin 1932-1937 For some reason the first page is on the RIGHT, the second page is on the LEFT: This message was edited by Newoldstock on 4-13-24 @ 8:55 AM
