Does anyone have a good source for vacuum gauges for our systems?

Greg - I am sure there are probably lots of sources for gauges but this is where I got mine: http://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?UID=2008032414383046&item=2141&catname=air

When in doubt, go to McMaster&Carr (http://www.mcmaster.com).:cool::cool: If they don't have 'it' you didn't need it anyway.:)

I made a rare visit to Harbor Frieght yesterday and see that they have one. I don't remember specifically, but I think it was $6.

Greg - Sorry, I should have been a little more clear - I was recommending the business, not a particular gauge. They do have a wide variety of guages to choose from. Check out this page or do a search on their site for additional items: http://www.surpluscenter.com/sort.asp?catname=air&keyword=AGGV

Are the liquid filled gauges preferred or not? Any problems with the needle fluttering while in use?

Liquid filled gauges are designed to dampen fluctiations in situations where the pressure is changing very rapidly and frequently. I can't imagine it is necessary in our applications.
