gauge accuracy
Just wondered how accurate you think your non-digital gauges are ???
And how you calibrate them, i have calibrated my with a bottle of gas but now read wrong at zero pressure.

Re: gauge accuracy
I trust my gauges and the dry ones do need ressetting to zero every few weeks. Because they are in the van they get bumped and do lose their zero.
I use good gauges that have the oil dampner inside and they do not need zeroing very often, but they still require changing every few years.
Cheers taz.

You could always buy a pressure calibration tester

Re: gauge accuracy
Nice thought, but at that price i would need a loan and the interest rates are to high at the moment.

Re: gauge accuracy
Being a frugal person i just keep a good quality guage with a tee and use it as a standard and calibrate the work guage to it and calibrate it at the middle scale about where I use it.
