lol, yeah have had that happen to a couple gauges before...does suck.  Worse when the other screw falls out too, riding at 70mph, and the faceplate is vibrating one way, and the needle the other...kinda makes your eyes cross

Lols
Reminded me of good old days :)

I was hoping that someone may have a complete gauge in good condition.

I would take it apart, lube it up inside, put the screws back in with some lok-tite, clean the glass, and put it back together.

you ever put one of these gauges back together? The ring is a PITA.
