Default Co2 pressue change on you?

I have a 1/6th of a keg, a full Co2 tank and a insulated PVC system that seem to be doing great. I am having a difficult time maintaining the right temp... I am waiting on temp regulator to get in to be able to get the right 36-38 degrees.

Anyways, I noticed today that my Co2 pressure dropped from about 13 to almost 0.

Anyone know why? Would it have anything to do with the temp? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for reading.

Do you have a secondary pressure gage? How many kegs have you gone through on that bottle? It may be empty or you have a leak. I would look there first.

I do have 2 gauges. One for the pressure and one to tell me how much Co2 I have left (I think, right?).

It's my first keg. There may be a leak, I'll check. Any other suggestions?

Thanks for the reply.
