25PSI? Yeah... forgot to check those...
So I went out and checked my tires on Cara the other day, because the noise from the rear tires seemed louder, and the front tires were harder to turn w/o the PS (EOC).
It turns out, I haven't checked them in quite some time, I guess... 20PSI on 3 tires, and 25 on the fourth... Hm... no wonder it handles funny? So, I pumped all 4 back to 40, and now it's GREAT! I'm going to remove the PS belt, as well. I don't need it at all, and the wife's car is running just fine, so I don't see her needing it anytime soon. |
:eek: Shame on You! lol

I've noticed that I'm coasting further...maintaining speed longer during EOC. This could have a very positive effect, I think. She's like a new van again.

Ah yes, the old too little PSI in the tire robs MPG trick. Me thinks KAOS had a hand in your little misfortune. (I haven't checked mine in over a month ... Damn You KAOS!) CarloSW2 |

Toots and the Maytals said it best... "Pressure drop, oh pressure, oh yeah, pressure's gonna drop on you..." :D
