Default Gas Gauge Question
When installing a new gas gauge, where does the brass washer go? I can't find any instructions or illustrations. Any help would be appreciated.

A lot of info is in the parts books and websites
I use the cork gaskets and not the neoprene as suggested in the description

Yes to that. I had a problem, only had the neoprene on hand and needed to get the car on the road. Soon after the installation the gasket swelled and stopped movement of the gauge. Installed the cork gaskets.
