The whole thing turns....capilary, bulb, and nut. I can't get the bulb to separate from the nut.....stuck tighter than white on rice. :-) The gauge works and I've only turned it about 30 to 40 degree

plan is to remove the existing bar, >measure it, and adjust the new one to that length. Then, after installation into the middle hole, use the screw Craig - BTDT. I did exactly what you suggested abo

The fitting that holds the bulb in place is independent, sounds like it is just a little stuck. Maybe some PBB and a gentle nudge? B Hello List Friends I'm working on a TR3A for a fellow and I need t

What he said. The metal part with the hex flats is a nut that should unscrew without rotating the bulb. In fact, usually the hard part is getting the bulb out after the nut has been unscrewed. Next

The fitting turns fine, but the capilary turns too. Aren't they supposed to turn independently? I've been soaking the thing with PB Blaster and Kroil alternately for about a month. I think I'm just g

Does the gauge work? By 'turning too' do you mean if you start to turn the nut - the tube turns as well - AND YOU STOP or, it turns more than just a nudge.... if the latter - the tube has probably se

meant to add - if you take the housing off you can see if the bulb is turning as well. That would mean the tub has broken somewhere in the line. Both cases mean a rebuild is in order. Does the gauge

Maybe. Or after a turn or two you can push on the bulb to free it from the nut and they you're home free. Dave
