I'm still not sure if my wga is fucked or not. I went to do that psi tester thing with the tire pressure gauge and I couldn't for the life of me pull the rod out more than a couple inches. Then I noticed that the rod can spin around in place. Is that supposed to happen or should I be buying a new wg?

 

Yes it will spin around. It also doesn't move out very far when pressure is applied. Only an inch or so.

Sounds like its fine.
