Gateshead edged out of the National League relegation zone but were denied all three points late on as York recovered to claim a 2-2 draw.
Danny Elliott put the north east side in front on the half-hour mark, slotting in after exchanging passes with Dan Ward.
Mitch Hancox equalised for York in the 38th minute with a lob over the goalkeeper from outside the area after he received the ball from Lenell John-Lewis.
Ward restored Gateshead's lead in first-half stoppage time with a curling strike but Shaq Forde seized on a chance in the final minute of normal time to grab a point for the Minstermen.
It was a measure of revenge for York, who lost 3-0 at home to Gateshead on Boxing Day. The point lifted them one place to 16th.
