Scott Fuel Guage

Post by mschwab »

Hey Guys:

My fuel guage magnet came undone and just spun around. I spot welded it and it held good, but De-magnitized. I've played around with it but can't seem to get it as strong as the other one. Is there a technique to magnitizing this magnent? Thanks for any tips. Mike

Replace it. $69. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/i ... _gauge.php

(Next time use epoxy or JB Weld.)
