Gotta make sure to get all the air out of the tube, though.


And your tube needs to be 3/8" dia. or larger, I was told. A smaller dia. tube would allow for the water's adhesive forces to affect the internal flow, possibly giving an inaccurate reading..... and probably more so with a longer tube.

You can add dishwasher rinse aid to the water to help prevent that.
