Where can I find a MPG gauge for A 1995 F53 460? Scan gauge dose not work on the older ones. Thanks

You will probably have to use a vacuum gauge. JC Whitney makes one with MPG on it, this would not be true MPG probably, but would be a guide to help get best mileage

JC Whitney Vacuum Guage with MPG

Here is a standard vacuum guage that will do the job for you

Autometer Vacuum Gauge

I agree, to get maximum mpg run at maximum vacuum. Or do I have that backwards?
