My previous pool company “lost” the pool filter gauge and stores are closed on Sunday in my area. Is there anyway to run the filter till I can get my hands on one in a day or 2? The new pool company opens the pool tomorrow and don’t know if they have a spare.

Most gauges are 1/4 NPT pipe thread. Any hardware store should carry a plug that will get you buy until you source a gauge.
If you can wait order the gauge they sell at the Trouble free store. Wasn’t sure if you meant it’s lost and now you can’t run the pump or not.
Thanks. Any brass gauge 1/4 NPT with good reviews should suffice? And, for now, just get a 1/4 NPT plug, correct?
I ordered 2 from Amazon but they might not arrive until Monday and I want to start running the pool filter. In North Jersey, stores are closed so I don't have many options.

Yes. It should get you by until you get the gauge. Use a couple wraps of Teflon tape on the threads before installing. I'll bet the the guys coming to open the pool will have a plug or gauge to get you going.
