Member Posts: 78 Comments: 0 Joined: 10/12/11	The top portion of my fuel (The tank is a Florida Tanks brand) gauge is missing and I know from several searches that it is a Rochester and was common to most models. I don't want to replace just the missing part but would like to replace the whole assembly. My question is, are these the correct ones? http://www.rochestergauges.com/Pages/...s/6500.pdf http://www.ebay.com/itm/ROCHESTER-GAU...257466e05d Edited by Joe Kriz on 09/03/12 - 11:38 PM Jerry 1989 22' Guardian Dive Boat - twin 1997 115 Johnsons

I have a Guardian 18' with a 54 Gal below deck tank and it worked fine. You have to bend the float arm to match your existing drop, it's a little awkward to get it correct but ours is working fine with the replacement. http://i1133.photobucket.com/albums/m...G_0934.jpg The photo above was my first attempt bending the arm as originally attached - the action was backwards for my tank. The arm eventually broke. The photo below is where I re-bent the rod correctly drilled out the original rod and inserted and crimped it with the correct bend and angle. The universal gauge assy. has about a 36" float arm. http://i1133.photobucket.com/albums/m...G_0939.jpg Good luck with it... Edited by tothemax on 09/05/12 - 6:00 AM 2005 Dauntless 220
