My four year old Smith's (Holden) capillary water temperature gauge has slowly subsided over the last couple of weeks, so that it now thinks water boils (near sea level!) at 35 degrees centigrade. Does anyone know of a company who can repair them, or do I just lob Holden another ninety (ouch) quid?

Thanks. From their website it looks as if they only do speedometers, but I'll ring and ask. Since the gauge still works a bit I don't think I can have a burst capillary - it's more likely, I think, that there is something jamming at the display end, which might be their cup of tea.

From their web site:
We can repair and recalibrate to original specification most types of Smiths Capillary type gauges from the Smith's range of instruments.
A contributor to one of the Rolls-Royce sites has just had his 20/25 capillary temperature gauge refurbished there, and they also provide an alternative to Mr Marks for Jaeger chronometric instruments.

D'oh. How did I miss that?
