[Healeys] Oil in oil/water temp gauge

[Oudesluys]

Remove bezel and glass and use brake cleaner to clean the internals and 
face. However be careful as in some instances the white lettering of the 
SMITHS/Jaeger/LUCAS gauges can be easily wiped away, even with water, so 
do not wipe!!!
To remove the bezel lift the tabs slightly and rotate the bezel until 
the tabs line up with the holes in the body rim. Carefully lift the 
glass. After that the bezel and glass can be cleaned. Do not bother to 
replace the sealing. It is not necessary and counterproductive as now 
trapped moisture can easily evaporate.
