Grandma’s pressure canner.
I got a new sealing gasket, pressure steam gauge, air vent cover lock, and over pressure plug. My canner is just like new, with a lot of memories attached. Parts came faster than expected. Service was exceptional.

On the gauge in the center of the lid there is a compression gasket, how do I replace that gasket? My gauge is fine but the gasket is split in half.

First of all, I did not have a rice cooker, but a Presto pressure canner, and a Presto pressure cooker
Took out old pressure gauge from pressure canner
inserted new gasket into hole. This took a few minutes, and a little maneuvering, but it is supposed to be tight.
Screwed new pressure gauge into gasket. that's it. works great, doesn't leak.
Took out old sealing ring from pressure canner and put in new. Took out old vent plug and inserted new, required a little scrunching, but easy. Works great, doesn't leak.
This whole process (ordering, quick service, and replacing parts) was super easy, and so much cheaper than buying new equipment. My old pressure cooker and pressure canner are older, and heavier models, so I have better quality equipment than if I bought new.

Read instructions in booklet that came with my pressure cooker canner. Removed the old pressure gage, installed the new one following the instructions in the booklet.
My pressure cooker canner needed repair. It was not a rice cooker.
Replaced the pressure gage with the new one according to the directions in the booklet.
Removed the old rubber gasket and replaced with the new gasket.
Remove and replaced the small rubber gasket in the top of the pressure cooker canner according to the instructions in the booklet that came with the canner.
Easy process. Thanks.

Remove the old sealing ring from the lid and clean out the slot where the seal fits into. Insert the new sealing ring in the lid. The from the back of the lid, pop out the old pressure plug and press in the new one. Then simply install the new regulator and steam gauge.

Installed new lid seal, pressure guage and safety plugs. When new lid seal is replaced it makes it tough to close lid but that's a good thing, you have a good tight seal.
