My 1979 V-20 Outrage has corrosion inside the fuel gauge face and the needle fell off. Outside the gauge is surprisingly clean but the screws don't want to come out and appear to have been painted in place.

I saw the link to E Components, does anyone know which model replaces the existing gauge? I assume it is a spiral gauge but would like to know for sure.

This one is round with four larger screws at the 'corners', two small screws at 6 and 12, and says Rochester Gauge Texas Inc. Dallas, USA around the bottom of the face.

This may self destruct trying to remove and I would like to have the replacement on hand before I start.

Is this the time to covert to a remote system and put the gauge on the panel?

Thanks,
Cal
