Welcome to TBN.

You'll get some good responses to this question. We have some very handy people here.

My Ford 3910 has the same problem. I'm thinking it's the sender unit but haven't took the time to disassemble the tractor to find out. I removed my dash cluster and made sure my wiring to the gauge and sender unit is intact.

I will take the dash apart and look around and clean things up.

Unhook the + from the sending unit, if gauge drops it's the sending unit. If you just touch the + to ground, the gauge should pop to full. Do not leave it there just touch it quick.
