Glad to hear it was something so simple.
Could you do us a favor and post pix of how and where you made your gauge connection, for those of us who have been gaugeally deprived? Thanks Paul

its really simple actually. the guage is placed in line with the control
pressure gas line going to the FD. depending on if you have a valve open or closed and some other factors determines which system is being tested.
