[Healeys] Oil in oil/water temp gauge

[Darin Graber]

Hi Tom,

Other than an annoyance, this is a fairly easy fix.  It is most likely the small leather washer between the hard copper oil line and the gauge itself. It could be the gauge somehow, but doubt it. It is kind of a bugger to replace, standing on your head and all, but is a quick repair. Best...
