Welcome to the forum.

DON'T WRITE IN CAPS LOCK - IT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF YELLING AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS AND IS CONSIDERED RUDE AND HARD TO READ!!!

www.mazdatrix.com - $100USD, the only place I've found. I bought one for my '84.

Try cleaning the plug first. Mine didnt work at all becasue of all the corrosion

 

Agreed Ian. If the corrosion is to the point that it's completely broken the guage will read completely empty. I bet it just needs a good cleaning.

 

And as a tip: If you buy the new guage, take the tank out and have a gas tank shop put it in. It cost me $50 CDN, but they flushed all the crap out of the tank, giving it a thorough cleaning, they installed my sender, and even installed another ground wire and sealed it with rustproofing sealer!

Not bad.. especially considering how much varnish I had in the bottom of my tank after it had sit for so many years.

Would the sender from a GLC tank fit a 7's tank? Maybe you could swap the rod or something?
