[Land-speed] Fire Bottles ( LOOK )

I was advised Sat at El Mirage that there are many coldfire fire bottles
that have a "for use with Halon only" pressure gage
I have coldfire and sure enough my gages are "for use with Halon only". if
you look at the front of the gage at the very bottom it says "for use with
Halon only".
The problem is that the internals of the gage rust with the coldfire so when
the bottle looses pressure the gage will stay in the green
also when you get your bottles re certified they could weigh correctly with
no pressure.
2 competitors had this problem at Bonneville this year so check your gages
