I'm feeling like a bit of an idiot, but between kegs, my tank/regulator fell over, the plastic cap fell off of one of the two line pressure gauges (I have a dual gauge regulator). I put it back on and thought nothing of it. Then today I hooked up my keg and started pressurizing it, it was going fine, but the pressure seemed too low and wasn't moving, in retrospect, I shouldn't have used that line and/or should've realized that maybe it falling had something to do with what I was seeing, I blame lack of coffee at the time. So I started cranking up the pressure and then started losing air out the blowout on that regulator. I shut it down and stepped back and realized that the gauge was show (face bent, needle stuck/unresponsive). I've ordered a new gauge, but my two questions are: 1. Should that fix it or does it sound like I messed something else up in the regulator in my ill-advised messing around. And 2. can I just cap that while I wait for the gauge to come and use the other line? If so, anyone know what size plug I need?
And yes, I've already ordered a guard with the new gauge so that this doesn't happen again.
Thanks all.
