Last winter I had my compass overhauled by Rule Industries. It is an
Aquameter Gemini and they replaced the unit with a rebuilt for around
$60. During the season, it developed a bubble. I feel that I should be
able to get rid of the bubble by adding fluid through the fill plug.
The only problem is that I don't know what to put in. Does anybody
know what to fill it with?
I guess I could call Rule but that seems too easy.
Regards,
John

How about sending it back for warranty work since it didn't even last
the season?
I had the same problem with a bubble and was told to add mineral oil by
the repair person. That worked temporarily. But the fluid kept
leaking out at an ever increasing rate. Eventually, I bought a new
compass since the price of repair exceeded the cost of replacement.
