Gary,
Here is a link to a good MG guy, same gauges, that should be helpful.

OR, call Morris at West Valley Instruments in Reseda, CA and send it to him
for repair.
Sorry, but I cannot help you with your copper wife... you're on your own.
Good luck,
Bill

Subject: [TR] tr-3 gas guage
List,
Now I did it. I've taken my tr-3 fuel guage all apart and find myself in
trouble. The confusion comes from the two posts inside with copper wife
coiled around them. These posts also have a strand of thin copper wire
connecting them to each other. The top of each post has a small steel plate
with a half moon curve on one side. My question is: do these half moons on
the post plates go a certain direction such as toward each other or away
from each other or towards the sensor that lays beside the posts and
controls the needle.
I'm afraid these half moons..........might need to be adjusted by how
they're turned or what distance they lie from the sensor.
Anyone have
suggestions or experiences with these guages?
thanks
gary n.
