I'm needing to replace my steam guage (an unfotunate incident has knocked the guage off by 2). Has anyone had to replace theirs before and have any tips and know how to do this? When I first purchased my canner 14 years ago and started canning, it was super-loud and the regulator was rocking like crazy (like a pressure cooker)... and had me scared to death that it was about to blow! I contacted the manufacturer and the guage was indeed off... by at least 5! They had me mail the whole canner to them, they repaired and sent it back. They said it shouldn't start rocking until about 15psi. So I'm wondering how to tell if a new one is measuring accurately... by trial and error I guess?
