Can anybody tell me the difference between these three gauges - as in, early/late, is one for a 6, relative value?
The top one is very similar, but not identical, to the one in my 6. Attached image(s)

Top one is a -6 combo gauge (suspect it is since it has the fuel gauge in the bottom) so since -6's were made 70-72, I'd say it's early. The one on the left is a late combo gauge with oil temp, no silver button like the other 2 and small red overtemp area on scale. The one on the right is an early combo gauge since it has a silver button. You can see the part number at the top face of the gauge and go to the Parts Vault on this site (located in Originality and History in The 914 Forums) and see info in the entries for the part numbers. In my opinion ....
PS: ... but looking at the example of the -6 gauge in the Parts Vault, your's does not have the idiot light for the parking brake or the other unused (for sportomatic?) idiot light but the temp scale is the same, so I can't tell you what that gauge exactly is. I'm still going to say it's for a -6. |
