Anyone install a 4.6 instument cluster on a 4.4?
Gas consumption gauge on 4.4 is a oil temp on the 4.6
Will it work or not

There is no gas consumption needle in the 4.6is cluster. Oil Temp needle will not work and neither are the LEDs on the tachometer.

They do that because they dont want you to know that the 4.6 is getting 2 mpg.

Wait, there's no gas needle on a 4.6 cluster? How do you know how much gas you have?!?

They are referring to the gauge at the bottom of the cluster that shows your instantaneous fuel economy (MPG), not the fuel guage.
