I'm probably going to regret this, but here goes. Anyone have any comments, problems, etc with the low profile Posiedon pressure gauge? I really like this low profile and the HP hose is about half the size of standard HP hoses. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /~~\ / | ~\ / | \ (:< /_____|_________\ /\_ _| No Requests! | _\__`[_________________| "So What?" -- Miles Davis ] [ \, ][ ][ <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< On Fri, 26 Jan 1996, Paul W.
