Roger that. Good conversation as always. John.

Just in case you need to lift 4 or 5 spridgets at once?

Yep, fairly basic old gauge--absolutely no harm can be done reversing the wiring----Maybe the gauge was assembled incorrectly new and has always had to have had the wiring switched---rest easy young man there will be no smoke from there.
