I think what madmaxx is trying to point out is, care must be taken when you run the capillary tube (wire). This is actually a tiny tube filled with ether. The expansion of the ether through the tube is what causes the gauge needle to move. Sharp bends, twisting or the accidental contact with an electrical source can cause the small copper tube to fracture and leak out the ether.
