<VV> Early manifold gauge connection problem

[Mark J. Murphy]

I'm assuming you just cut the end off of the line and used a new nut &
ferrule, then cranked it back in.  Pull it apart again and use an awl (or a
pick, even a nail) to gently flare the end of the line a bit.  This should
give it the seal it needs.
