Had the exact same thing happen, don't know what caused it. Sent it back to LSM and they sent it back with a new gauge. Forget what it cost but it seemed reasonable. Figured we had dropped it or something but maybe the needles are a little weak.

Count me in on that one, ordered new gauge from Fastenal.... good as new. I think it was around 60.00 for the liquid filled gauge. Never figured out why needle bent. Joe

Rusty,

I had the same thing happen to my gauge. I sent it back to LSM and they installed a new gauge on it. I think they charge $40.00 to install the gauge and test it. Give them a call. I think I spoke to Tim Smith. Great people. Great service.
