A couple of questions what did you use to clean the metal to metal rims? And looking for gauges I came across granger and they had temp/pressure gauges which brings up 2 questions 1. why not use those 2. can you use a reduction fitting going from 1/4 to 1/8 without messing up the temp/psi readings? I found a new presto on sale but it can not take the heat without warping so I cannot use it with my gas burner outside which when it is hot I would like to do.
I will answer your questions tonight on my computer.
I just had it all typed out on my phone and ruined it.
