Fuel Gauge

I bought a fuel gauge at a swap meet. All the parts are in a bag. A ceramic plate with two holes a fiber gasket and to brass wire connectors.

I need to know in what order they go on the back of the gauge. Which wire is which. If some one has a photo that would be great.

A bit more info might help us help you Jim.

What year Chevelle? What trim level - basic gauge package or deluxe or super sport?

If its for the '65, I have black w/pink tracer as being the feed from the ignition switch, and tan as going to the sending unit. Don't know if thats 100%...
I've been trying to find a pic...

The gauge has three posts. looking from the back you would have east post, west post, and south post.

I think the south is ground.

West is to the sending unit.

East is hot.

There is a ceramic block and a fiber block. I need to know in what order I stack the blocks and the wire connectors.

On my 66, it goes, fiber (Brown thing) first then contacts which wrap around the ceramic plate. If that helps?
