Question Fuel PSI? and Tachometer?

Hey guys, I got 2 unrelated questions. 1 did any of the '92 to '96 F150's have factory tachometers?


2) What is the correct fuel PSI for a '94 F150 with a 351W and dual gas tanks? (I assume that dual tanks wouldnt make a difference, but who knows)

Thanks!!

Yes these models could be ordered with tachs. I don't know the exact specs on a 351 but it should be in the range of 32-36psi. It should rise when you pull the vacuum line off of the FPR.

Yep. I know 87-91(for sure) instrament display panel are intetchangable cncluding F-series, lariets, rangers, broncos & maybe E-series. also even if your truck didn't come w/ a tach, wireing for a tach is still included in your plug in harness. I pulled 1 out of a lariet-91, at a junk yard $25. that had a tach & a tripometer, pluged it into my connectors everything worked, i'll post more about it in a couple of hrs, gotta go on a call right now & I think you should be seeing +-37 PSI I'll check on that.

the tach dashsr pulg and play as follows. 91-93 ,94 95 ,96 ,97

There is some over lap in build dates but the wrong cluster can cause alt problems as well as other stuff. they r on eBay for less than $50 all time.

I have several posts of how to put them in no here. Easy job hor or so. Just need complete cluster with tach. Swap out center (speedo cection ) to keep your mileage right. Good luck

There's a couple thing to keep in mind. There are two types of speedos.the earlier one is gear driven. The later one runs off a speed sensor. Make sure you get one that uses the same type speedo as yours. Also, oil sending units are matched with their gauge so grab the sending unit also.
