Best Answer

Have fixed this issue many times... you need a STRONG magnet. Turn the ignition off, place the magnet over the gauge (on the clear plastic cover over the gauge cluster) on the end of the needle... it will react to the magnet and move when you move the magnet. Simply rotate the needle back into its proper position. Raise the magnet up... if it stays in the position, turn the ignition on... if your gauge is not broken, the needle should be reset and function properly.

How does a Mix-o-Vial work?

There are two components to the mix-o-vial: the top chamber holding water, or some other solute, and the bottom chamber holding the medication, usually in a powder. There's a rubber stopper between the two chambers, with a small needle at the bottom of the top chamber. To activate the mix-o-vial, you squeeze the top and bottom together. This pushes the needle through the rubber stopper and allows the water to drain into the bottom chamber. The vial is then vigorously shaken to dissolve the medication.


How do doctors fill up syringes?

It depends what substance is going into the syringe. If it is a medication, sometimes the doctor will attach a hollow needle to the syringe and place the needle into a bottle of medication - this way he can draw up the medication into the syringe via the needle. The needle will then be removed from the syringe and discarded. The alternative method is that some bottles have a silicone stopper around the top, with a tiny hole in the middle where the (needle-less) syringe fits. You stick the tip of the syringe into hole so that it fits snugly, turn the bottle upside down and draw up the medication. The snug fit means that the medication doesn't drip everywhere when you turn the bottle upside down.
