Well? Did'ja?

Okay, it actually looks like we may have some cooler weather this winter after all.
Anybody bother to check their tire pressures after the temps dropped?
Stewie don't like it when the weather cools n' drops tire pressures by 20%.
Aaaay! It's jus' another service we offer . . . y'know?
Be well n' check your pressures.

We don't get down to freezing often here, but how about when the temp's over 110? What is the high pressure limit?

Java Junky · 11-11-2007, 01:37 AM

Okay. No arguement. 'Gets flat out sinister heat-wize out your way Scoot.
N' I doubt your missin' what I'm gettin' at (All'a youse guys're jus' bustin' the ol' guys chops, don't think I ain't onto you) but, for the Java-impaired:
Stewie'z pretty fussy when it comes to proper tire pressure n' it's only as good'z the rubber patch that it can lay on the tarmac. If the pressure varies too much from that magic 32psi (Especially unevenly as in a slow leak) it can have adverse stuff happenin'.
It'll take your favorite turn n' (If you're lucky n' still intact when the dust settles) have you discoverin' it from a whole new vantage point.
Be well.

32 PSI, got it, I never thought to check.

Hey, Java, thanks very much for reminding us all of this very important thing that we all most likely neglect! (except KGF)

kgf3076 · 11-11-2007, 04:38 AM

Yeah, but kgf is totally nutzoid about keeping everything checked, filled, topped-off, inflated, waxed, washed, or just in general, factory spec...

I'm with kg on this one......i like to keep a close eye on whatever i'm driving. Too often i've been stuck walking when driving somebody else's basket case, and I'll be tar and feathered before I don't do everything possible to keep my junkers tip top!

thanks for the heads up java,
