Default Re: Question on gas gauge replacement

Did the original glass magnify? That's news to me.

I just rebuilt mine, and have no reason to believe that it had been tampered with before... I had to get through 84 years of stubbornness to get it apart. And, I don't think that the glass was a magnifier.
