[TenTec] Argonaut V Meter Needle Sticking

[Bob McGraw - K4TAX]

Also a very simple solution is to use a clothes dryer softener cloth like a 
Downey or Febreeze.  The kind that you toss in the dryer.  Just wipe it on 
the face of the meters.  No icky sticky water or solution to be concerned 
about.
