Liquid filled pressure gauge question
This is probably a stupid question, but I accidently spilled some of the liquid out of my liquid filled fuel pressure gauge.
Is this going to impact its accuracy at all? It's still 3/4 filled. I just didn't know if it had be to have a precise amount down to the mL in there or not

All the liquid filled gauges we use on our vacuum systems have a small tit on the rubber fill plug. Before we cut the tit off, the 0-30" HG. gauges are reading 5-8". After we vent them, they are 0". Loosing some of the liquid is bo biggie in fact you can drain them and they read the same.
