    Anyone know how to test the fuel gauge and how to wire it? I bought the gauge a few years back at the Willys reunion, and my buddy tried installing it for me - but we have no idea if it is wired correctly or how to test it.

    Thanks,

    Jacob

    Stock gauge for a CJ5/6 instrument cluster, stock stand alone one for your CJ2 or an aftermarket unit?

    I *thought* it was a stock CJ5 gauge, but it is not in the instrument cluster. I have not been around the 5's enough to know if it is a CJ5 gauge or not. It is an individual gauge.

    I am hooking it to a CJ2A sender though - or was trying to.

    If it's standalone it's not a CJ5 gauge, so it's either a military/CJ2/CJ3 or aftermarket gauge.

    Any numbers printed on it?
