I just told you how to fix it in your other thread..if not replace teh guage, but still loctite it in...also...dont gas it up for 24 hours after doing it
What do you mean by PSI Display...the thing sticking out, with a dial at teh top and a thread underneath, that screws into teh reg, is called a guage...if it is leakinga round teh thread, where it joins teh reg, take it out with a socket set, and clean teh thread, then loctite or ptfe it back in...if its leaking from anywhere else on teh actual guage itself, replace teh guage. sounds liek its just the thread tho.
If teh guage isnt one of teh samll ones (they fit in a socket about 3/4 of an inch), then underneath will be a couple of flats that a spanner will go on...

Threadlock, is a liquid glue..comes in various types and strengths...commonly made by Loctite BUT IS NOT SUPER GLUE!!!
Look in teh "Official Loctite Use Thread" stickied in teh techroom.
