Should, as long as it's not too deep.

Be warned that it may indicate backwards, or give you no indication at all;
or possibly even damage the sender in the tank.

Although I don't see one at the moment, it's not unusual to see "working"
TR3 fuel gauges on eBay for not much (like under $20).  Be sure you don't
get a TR4 gauge though, since even though the early TR4 gauges look
identical, they take very different senders (& a voltage stabilizer).
