Expert Answers about Tire Pressure Gauges


  • Is Digital TireMinder Tire Pressure Gauge Accurate
  • The TireMinder Tire Pressure Gauge # TMG-AAA-Multi is accurate within 1 psi so it's very reliable. I've actually used this product a handful of times and it's extremely easy to use, plus it's a bit faster than an analog-style gauge. If you'd rather stick with the analog style then we have the High Precision Gauge # TMG-RV-Dial which uses a dial, and the Commercial Grade # TMG-330-39 which uses the traditional "stick" for reading the psi levels. Attached are some videos for you to check out!

  • Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tires with Wheels Are Ready To Install
  • Great News! Your Karrier # AM32153 Tires & Wheels are ready to install on your equipment. (They are balanced using the Uniformity Method without weights.) You may only need to adjust the air pressure. If you don't have an rugged yet accurate tire pressure gauge you should pick up the Bulldog # BDW46FR pressure gauge and keep it in your glove compartment.

  • Will Gauge Work Without Being Connected to TireMinder Portable Air Compressor for RV Tires
  • The gauge that comes with the TireMinder Portable Air Compressor for RV Tires # TM57MR will work without being connected to the compressor - you just have to pump the trigger to get it to give you a reading.

  • Operation Of Firestone Ride Rite Helper Springs On 2015 Forest River Sunseeker Class C Motorhome
  • Your 2015 Forest River Sunseeker Class C motorhome with Firestone Ride Rite helper springs is made on the e- series chassis, so you most likely have the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # F22ZR. These springs should be run from 5psi to 100psi and yes you can use regular compressed air at your gas station. If you want to change the location of your valves, you can use the Air Line Service Kit for Firestone Ride-Rite/Sport-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2012. If you'd like...

  • How to Determine the Proper psi Rating for a Tire
  • For tires that are on a trailer you always want to make sure that they are filled to their max psi (can be found on sidewall) so that you can get the performance and max weight capacity out of them. For tires on a passenger vehicle, like your burger van, you will want to look at the sticker on the inside of the door jam. It will tell you the proper tire size and pressure for both the front and rear axle. The best way to be able to tell if a tire has the proper psi is to wait until the...

  • Correct PSI Rating for Westlake ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire
  • I'm not quite sure why your dealer would say to put 80 psi in the Westlake ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # LHWL300 because they say to inflate it to 65 psi which gives you 2,150 lbs for the load rating. With 4 tires this puts you over the 8K max weight of your trailer that you referenced. When referencing a "cold" trailer tire it actually means a tire that has had time to cool off from traveling. During travel the friction between the tires and the road builds heat inside the tires and...

  • Is Increase in Tire Pressure Normal for ST225/75R15 Ply Rating 10 Tires
  • It's natural for the psi rating in a tire, like the Provider ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # TR225LRE, to increase during travel so you're good where you're at with the 80 psi when the tire is cold. That rating takes into account the rise in pressure during travel which is why tire manufacturers give their psi rating for when the tire is cold. It's easier for users to gauge that rating and it helps put your mind at ease if you check the tires prior to traveling. Under normal circumstances...

  • Operating Pressure of the Camco and the Water Pressure Regulator with Gauge # CAM40064
  • According to Camco, the Camco and the Water Pressure Regulator with Gauge # CAM40064 has been tested up to 125 psi without failing in some applications. With that being said, you will want to make sure that you are operating it within the "yellow" and "green" parameters of the gauge. The "yellow" indicates pressure under 40 psi and the "green" indicates pressure between 40 and 50 psi. If you are looking for a gauge that can read pressure a little more accurate you may be interested...

  • Is the Camco RV Water Pressure Regulator With Gauge Adjustable
  • I spoke with Camco and the Water Pressure Regulator with Gauge, # CAM40064, is not adjustable. She told me this regulator can regulate water pressure from up to 60 psi down to 50 psi. She also said they have tested it up to 125 psi with some success, but if the incoming water pressure exceeds 60 psi, this regulator may not be able to regulate properly. If the gauge reads too high then either the pressure on the water source needs to be lowered or the gauge or regulator is bad. According...

  • Air Lift Analogue Gauge AL25195 - Can The Low Pressure Cutoff Be Reset?
  • I checked with my contact at Air Lift and I was told that there is no way to reset the low pressure cutoff on their analog gauges like the # AL25195. If it is stuck at 20 it may be a defect with the gauge. If it is still under warranty, you can get it replaced thru air lift. If it is out of warranty you will need to buy a new one.

  • Does Valterra RV Water Pressure Regulator and Gauge Actually Regulate Water Pressure
  • The Valterra RV Water Pressure Regulator and Gauge for RVs # A01-1124VP does actually regulate the water pressure to 40-50 psi to help protect your RV system just like you're wanting. Unfortuantely I can't really speak to a review from 8 years ago, but I can say that we have been told by Valterra this regulates the pressure and you can see it reflected in the reviews of this product on our site.

  • Digital Air Pressure Gauge of Wireless Air Spring Compressor Systems
  • The Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Wireless Remote Control # AL74000 displays the digital air pressure gauge to allow you to monitor each spring. This is the real time psi you asked about. The Air Command Compressor System w/ Wireless Remote and heavy duty compressor # F96VV will also give you the digital gauge in your remote to monitor the actual air pressure in your system.

  • Firestone Airbags PSI Range and Surge On Gauge When Absorbing Road Shock
  • Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs like # F2061 have a minimum air pressure of 5 psi and a maximum pressure of 100 psi when inflated under load. This range does account for the additional pressure (surge) experienced when you hit a bump or pothole.

  • Wiring Schematic of AirLift Heavy Duty Compressor System Gauge
  • The gauge used with the heavy duty Air Lift compressor system, # AL25854, has 4 wires because the switch is built into the gauge. The black wire is the ground, white is the signal to the compressor, red and green are ignition power wires. I have included a picture showing a wiring schematic for you. On the standard duty switch you just have compressor signal wires to indicate additional air pressure (the upper switch terminal) and lower pressure (lower switch terminal).

  • Location of Illumination Circuit for Gauge on Firestone Level Command II
  • The tow package wiring under the dash has an unused wire that can be used to illuminate the gauge on your Air Command. Look under the dash to the left of the steering column. There is a bundle of wires that will have a white tag taped to it. The wire colors in the bundle will be red, white, light blue with a white stripe, orange and dark blue. The orange wire will show 12-volts on it when the headlights are activated, and would be a convenient place to attach the illumination wire for...

  • Can Air Spring Suspension System Air Pressure Side to Side Impact Handling?
  • Running different air pressure from side to side is not an issue for handling on your 2000 Ford F350. It allows level transport so it will actually help with the handling. Using a kit like the Firestone Air Springs # F2071 will allow you to use the manual inflation valves separately for that very purpose. There are also compressors that will allow this independent adjustment. For that, I recommend the Firestone Air Command II - Analog Gauge w/ Heavy Duty Compressor - Dual Function -...

  • Troubleshooting A Fogatti Tankless Water Heater That Won't Run
  • The Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 41,800 Btu - White Item # LSB64FR requires the following to properly function: 8-13" WC gas pressure (11"WC pressure preferred). 14.5-116 PSI water pressure (40-45 PSI preferred). 12VDC electrical power. First test your voltage using a meter like the LCD Digital Circuit Tester Item # PTW2992. If you're not receiving enough voltage you may be too far from the battery and need to increase the gauge of the wire. You should...
