Dead DG
That's a little extreme.
Either rebuilt or exchanged with one from a good shop will be fine.

Lethal instruments, i.e. things that can kill me if they go toes up in

instruments can be rebuilts, used, whatever... The lethal instruments
on the panel to me are the AH, speedo, T&B, altimeter, whiskey
compass... Most everything else is in the nice but not lethal
catagory... Your DG is a grey area... If you feel you MUST have the
autopilot in IMC, then the DG becomes a lethal instrument... Your
call...
