King-Seeley red fluid source

[Author nameAuthor names are only available to PAS members.]

Some have mentioned Ford parts suppliers for getting the King-Seeley red gas gauge fluid and thoughts that it doesn’t fade as fast as from Classic and Exotic. I am going to do a science experiment to see if UV blocking will slow down the fading of the red dye. I have fluid from C&E, but I haven’t been able to find any from an antique Ford parts supplier. Does anyone know of one? I will compare if I can get samples of both.

Thanks, Jim

My google skills are lacking! Placed an order, 2.95/vial vs 18.75 plus S&H from C&E. Will be interesting to compare – if there is any difference at all.

Thanks Bill! Jim
