I haven't had any problems until it started to get really cold outside, my boost meter was reading around 14psi until it started to get cold, now its reading 10psi. I know this sounds stupid and I probably should of figured this out on my own but the boost meter itself is not going back to the zero mark when I shut the car off. I have a decent autometer which is only a couple of months old but I can't find the receipt or else I would return it. Does anyone think that the meter is messed up or am I having other issues?
Thanks for any help
 
The gauge should read zero with the car off but ignition on the "on" position. If it doesn't zero out, the gauge is off.

Thank you very much!!
You're welcome. My last Autometer Phantom gauge was off by + 2.5 psi, put back my no name 10 year old gauge and it works perfectly, larger readings as well for old people. :)
