In the Cruiser, I've got the old cub style oil temperature/pressure gauge.

Recently, I've started experiencing a bit of a problem with the oil pressure guage. When I start the engine, the pressure comes up, but the needle sticks around 20 psi, I give the guage a good whack and it reads properly. Is there any maint. that I could do with my mechanic? Or do we need to send it out for repair/replacement. If repair/replacement is the solution, do you have any recommendations. I've heard Keystone Instruments in Lock Haven, any other good ones?
