Compression Tester Problem
My father gifted me this compression tester in 1983-84
due to misuse or lack of knowledge it became non functional

the gauge comes up but don't stay at any pressure
pressure release button is ok
i think the problem is with valve (like our day today tube valves)
i replaced it (regular tube valve) but it did not worked

check the pressure releif valve - it maybe leaking - the one below the gauge itself

Get the display unit checked by any instrument technician,because there is a spring installed inside the gauge it might lost its retaining power causing for this problem.
