      Well, are you putting the guage into the metal neck that has the syphon tube that goes into the bottle?
      If yes then you need an empty bottle.
      1 of my bottles has that set up.
      At my connection where the line connects to the bottle I have a guage hooked up to the line instead of the bottle
      As for the blow down tube:
      Do you also need to install one of those connections into the metal neck that has the syphon tube going into the bottle?
      If yes then again bottle must be empty.

          Not a stupid question at all.
          The whole thing (if there are contents in the bottle) are under pressure.
          Empty it, then install the guage
