Lowell Gauge

[Greg Newell]

David,
         I doubt you can do much with the amount of liquid inside the tube. 
Whether it's big or small should matter that much though since it's the 
movement you looking for not the size. Have you tried changing it's 
temperature to test your theory?

best,
Greg
