Hi Dave,
I've tried all the pressures in the owners handbook, shop manual and
door sticker also. For the last couple of weeks have been trying 30 psi
all the way round. Seems OK for street driving--perhaps a little too much
lane-joint thump, though.
BTW, owners manual for TDs was 18 psi, for the 5.50x15 Gold Seals.
Mike Robson, was the English P in PSI different from the American P,
back in 1950? Mike, I'm asking about the P in PSI, not the silent p in
swimming after drinking warm ale.
