Big problem many are not accurate..I have a motorcycle and makes a big difference a few lb. makes to handling...So I find what feels the best on the bike then check the pressure and stay with those numbers on a particular guage
Used to be with belted tires you could tell they were low. But modern low profile radials in most cars? Nope. They always look low. And 2 pounds makes all the difference in wear & handling.
K-Tool International Digital Air Inflator 89001,I am still wondering why this product does not come up like other brands,I bought it some years back and all of a sudden it does not show the tire pressure gauge like it used to and I have been trying to check for somebody that owns one if I can get help.Please if there is anybody that knows what could have gone wrong why it does not show the tire pressure gauge should get in touch.
I’d much rather have teenage drivers be taught how to measure tire air pressure than how to change the oil. Both are good, but tire pressure can be life or death.
I am so thankful you did this video. I have gotten out of the habit of checking my tire pressure CP. I used to do it once a week. I am going to start back now!!! I have a couple of different types of Milton air pressure gauges. Both made in USA. One is for airing up the tires from an airline & has an inline gauge with a magnifier so you can read the gauge easily. The other is a stick type checker gauge. That Matco one looks nice!! There are many of your subs who love Henry & appreciate how you are including him in more of the videos!! He has more facial expressions than any other dog i know!!! Ha!!! Henry the tool addict dog!!
Hello again CP and Henry Thank you for another Great Video. As I was taught, keeping your tires correctly pressurized increases your MPG!!!! Gas costs too much to waste it. Again thank you
Once the chuck is loose on the threads you can slide off the chuck fitting, and slide on the next one, you don't have to completely unthread it. Just something I noticed messing around with one of these
I carry 2 of my milton analog pressure gauges with me everywhere I go. Made in good ol usa. However i really want that matco unit or the bluepoint one.
When performing service & rotations I always check pressures..always have..the value of shop service , big benefits..things that don't happen at the quick lube..
Chelle, do what I am doing... getting a young one and training him right!😂😂😂😂 You know I am joking there. Gary does not need to be trained and I'm only 25! 😉 Right Sweet P?!?!
I have the blue point, milton, astro, jaco, etc...matco dt8 tops them all. Every part of the tool looks and feels better made from all the others mentioned above. Besides my 3/8 ratchet, sockets, and cordless impact, this is next in line as most used tool. We are required to check tire pressure on all vehicles that come in. Save your money and buy once, cry once.
I have a Matco one but it's smaller than the one you have... I think they no longer make them anymore. I will put a fast video up in the morning just to show you CP.
Dangit CP you hit this one on the head you would make a great auto shop teacher sure miss those and the ag classes can't wait to see the video on your new wagon 👍👍
that dt8 is nice. need that for checking inside duals. as always great video. hot and cold pressures are so much different. really enjoy the channel and the videos awesome job!
As Technologies continue to encroach on every aspect of Our Lives, I find myself being more and more of a Luddite, looking for more basic tools to get the job done. I hate changing batteries. I need to add the fact that I'm enjoying your content brother, continue as you are
I used the Tuisy for 3 years before I ruined it by airing a sureshot and the brake clean got into the screen. Cheap and reliable, don't think I changed the battery once over the 3 years.
I have OCD and one thing that I fixate on is tire pressure. I can get compulsive about it. Like pull over on the side of the road just to check the tire pressure. I can do it repeatedly every few miles. It is actually debilitating. I got so bad, that my friends have taken away my pressure gauge.
If it's all there keep it original not many left 💯 original keep it I use my tire gage in PSI my Milton is still in calibration after all these years cheap it regularly at the terminal shop
I try to keep tire gauge in door compartment of every one of my vehicles. 50 psi gauges won't work for my trucks I run those tires at 70psi. My tpms sensor is my eyes and the steering wheel.
That's because they are too afraid to face me larry because I'd be the worst mistake they ever made but I love these people because they give me more fuel to be great!!
Lol was literally just curious wasn’t trying to be mean I went to Vegas a few years ago and most of the locals were on them, I don’t even live in the same continent as you I don’t care haha
And agree 100% about air pressure, nobody checks it. I swear half the customers that come in for an oil change service are only there because either the tire light or the washer fluid low light is on and they're too stupid to check it.
I have a half dozen dollar store gauges for my tires with green slime in them. The slime will get into the orifice of a gauge and plug it up, forever. Never use a good gauge on a tire with stop leak. And be kind to the tire shop by telling them there's slime in your tire.
I will get the DT-8 for the truck
Happy 17 may CP
That truck is a diamond in the rough. Wow two wheel drive? If so big block and make that sucker scoot.
Yes 2 wheel drive 230 inline six plan on doing man upgrades and making it my daily shop truck
So the old C 20 like the one you had back in the day before you had to sell it:)
Yes it exactly like it!!

another great video we document tire pressure on every truck and trailer we work on
Killa passal
we got one of the matco air chucks in the barn and yes ASTRO pneumatic makes it

Love mine only thing I'd say is be careful if your shop gets sunlight in it it will cloud up your screen very quickly.

The Matco is rebranded Astro
Hello again CP and Henry
Thank you for another Great Video. As I was taught, keeping your tires correctly pressurized increases your MPG!!!! Gas costs too much to waste it. Again thank you
That is going to be a SUPER SWEET project truck, CP!
I thoroughly enjoy my Matco inflator gauge.
Once the chuck is loose on the threads you can slide off the chuck fitting, and slide on the next one, you don't have to completely unthread it. Just something I noticed messing around with one of these
I think I lost the other adapter already lol

Agree 100% tire gauge is a must for all. Great video brother!
You don't need a Matco dt8 , but it helps..Thanks Buddy. 👍
I loved that video
The DT8 is a no brainer for me and is why I chose it over the DT6. Still using mine 3 years later.
That truck is older than you! LOL
What's wrong with being young I like things with age they are like fine wine!! Lol
@@CPthetooladdict Nothing wrong with being young CP. I aged like fine wine too!
Lol well boy howdy now!!
Chelle it's the perfect recipe for a great relationship is what I'm told lol
Chelle, do what I am doing... getting a young one and training him right!😂😂😂😂 You know I am joking there. Gary does not need to be trained and I'm only 25! 😉 Right Sweet P?!?!
What happens when it says LL on the screen
Low light
@@CPthetooladdict Do you know how to remove it? I cant figure it out.
I have several Milton pencil-style gauges with different pressure ranges. They have served me well for years and are built like tanks!

You don’t like the Milton auto inflate? I was thinking about that option. Currently using the snap on digital inflator.
The Milton wasn't out at the time I made this video I've not tried it but I would definitely be interested plus it's made in the usa
Have had great luck with my Blue Point TPGIF1600A. Great video as usual man👍
I have a Matco one but it's smaller than the one you have... I think they no longer make them anymore. I will put a fast video up in the morning just to show you CP.
I've got two of those nice matco air gauges both in green one for the house and one for the shop. They hold up fantastic and they have a warranty
CP my big thumb hit the 👎 twice it said it was going to share the info with the creator it was a mistake I am so sorry Buddy
Awesome video brother. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible night. Much love and RESPECT brother
Great truck

Thanks man !!
I have an older Matco that has an analog gauge, it's a DTG5. Never needs batteries, just hook up the air hose and go. Been using daily for 8 years.

Can’t go wrong with good ol American made steel
We get inspected by DOT, if our tire pressures are under 110 lbs, we get fined huge. Yeah, important....

Hey cp do u use a mobility scooter
No but your mom does after she leaves my place!!

How sad it is to be you hiding behind a pseudonym making childish remarks. Life is great for us. Really a shame it is not for you

Not gonna lie that would be awesome!

I need to get this. How much more is it on Matco compared to astro pneumatic
200 vs 78 lol
I bought the ASTRO works very well had a bluepoint gauge
Probably the same on snapon truck. What one does Mac sell?
@@123donmaster Milton its okay
