Subject: Re: fuel gauge
The petrol / oil changeover switch is ( normally ) an unengraved black push button switch. ( Lucas pt. no. 31295 ) Its standard position on the 2.6 is at about 4 o'clock with respect to the ignition / lighting switch. However, if the car is a very early chassis, say prior to LAG/49/20, then we have seen cars with the relative positions of the switches different from the norm. A dismantled and put back together car may also have them in the wrong place.
Attached is a switch picture that could help? Regards, Martin

PS. Perhaps I should add: it's a momentary action switch not intended to be operated once the engine is running!
