What was found

(CAN) WE HAD A PRESSURE GAUGE THAT HAD A SMALL LEAK SO WE PURCHASED A NEW GAUGE FROM MFG AND INSTALLED IT ON THE AIRCRAFT. WHEN SYSTEM WAS BROUGHT UP TO THE PROPER PRESSURE THE NEW GAUGE LEAKED WORSE THAN THE ORIGINAL GAUGE. THE GAUGE WAS SENT BACK TO BEECH AND WE ARE WAITING FOR A REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A QUALITY CONTROL ISSUE. (TC NR 20071106007)
