Rich, I think you're about 2 weeks early with this warning, beneficial
though it may be.


If you wait until the last minute, all of the good stuff will be gone and
you'll have to take that polluted Mexican imported air. It is supposed to be
80 degrees in Denver tomorrow!

I did order mine early but the instuctions are less than complete.
Since spring air is warmer, do I increase or decrease my tire pressure
to compensate?

Harry............

You may either consult a barometer or - since you're right there at the
airplane, your altimeter setting. Be sure to zero your pressure gauge to
compensate for the density altitude. If you have purchased the yuppie
(expensive) "Lite" spring air imported from Rocky Mountain High, refer to
the table on the back of the can. Believe me, the good stuff is worth the
premium as it really cuts down on the tire wear between the rim and the
bead. You'll enjoy the weight advantage, too.
