My cheap calibration protocol is to take a reading with three =
different gauges If the results are within a pound (+_) I figure it's =
close enough for a car tire. =20
As an aside, my Nissan truck has a simple TPS waring light on =
the dash, but if I plug in my code scanner it gives me the tire pressure =
in as read from each of the tire sensors.
Best,
Bob.

I have to agree. I have a little nicer =

I've had the batteries go bad in several of my

again is<br class=3D"">
a real pain. So I strongly suggest that you take =

when not in use and store them in a plastic =

the leak, they <br class=3D"">
don't mess up the gauge.<br class=3D"">
