As many people know already, I sell O-ring kits for the Smith & Jaeger
gauges. In getting the kits together I tackled many gauges lots of which
had O-rings morphied into space age glue. I tried many ploys but the most
successful was the use of a "boa-constrictor". For anyone who is
interested contact me off list and I will send an instruction document (Word).
