Is the steam is escaping from the sides after reaching 5 psi?
If so, you need to get yourself a new gasket.

Perhaps the inlet of the gauge is plugged with goo. Try to stick a pin in it and see if it's clogged. (I assume it has a gauge)

Is it obviously leaking steam around the gasket? If not, check the gauge.

If there is not an obstruction, you may have to have the gauge replaced by a reputable dealer or factory authorized service center.

Come again? It would have to be one hell of a close tolerance machined surface to hold back the pressures involved. I'd need confirmation of this.

So I guess it IS one hell of a close tolerance machined seal.


Hmmmmm....
