What is this?

I found this inside the gas tank of my "52 JD A. Any idea what it is?

To me it look like some sort of fuel gauge. Float is missing

I agree. Probably had some sort of cork float on it at one time.

Looks like parts of what I call a rain gauge fuel gauge. A clear plastic tube stuck up out of the top of the fuel cap. That round plunger in the picture went up and down inside the tube or was connected to some kind of a red indicator inside the tube.

Google "AA4858R". That's Deere's P/N for the gas gauge fuel cap. You'll see a picture, and can improvise the missing parts, for yours. Very handy. I have one on my "A". Davenport Tractor sells new ones.

That's a ruler.

Thanks for all the responses, including the ruler ID.
