need fuel gauge 278000496, but wondering if i can use 278000073...?

Hi, I posted the same question in another thread but mistakenly put it in 4tec, sorry and mods please feel free to delete the other one. The gauge I need is not to be found easily, but it seems there may be be others that could work... same size and face, maybe I have to do some soldering on the ends... but any thoughts or opinions on this before I blow some cash on a 278000073?

[MENTION=41828]Minnetonka4me[/MENTION] will likely have the correct part and answer your question.

I have deleted the other post you made in the 4-tec section...
