There are others but his turn around time for me was 2 wks.All they did was the temp portion in my gauge.I serviced the fuel gauge and used orig NOS Ford fluid in the fuel gauge.
Where did you obtain the NOS Ford 'red'? Thanks.

The ongoing fear of using it -

I've commented on this subject, to use . . . or not to use.

I have spoken to a few that supply it, asking, isn't this red stuff fatal?

One reply," Huh! If ya drink it, yes! I've been mixing it and supplying it for decades, and I'm still here."

Still, I'm 'skeerd' ta use it for my '33, thinking, maybe I'll roll up a red-colored paper and 'sleeve it in the glass fuel tube so it appears that the 'red' is in it.

Then adjust a fuel tank float and sender of some kind to connect to accessory under-dash gauge.

BUT:

I am consider'g woodgrain'g the dash; the dash being removed for the woodgraining, then upon replacing the dash, this would be the time to clean up the fuel gauge tube and eye-drop the 'red' with a covid-type face mask at arm's length. (the air line is in and sealed all the way to the gauge connection per the previous owner.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated! If the NOS Ford 'red' is available, from where/who. Thank you.
