? OT: Tyre pressures

Most forecourt airlines have their gauges in both PSI and BAR (if they have a working airline at all that is!).

Out of interest:

So your Chrysler needs ~40 PSI (quite high?)

For this and EVERY other conversion you would ever want (probably) go to ..

p.s. Also tread yourself to a digital pressure gauge (~9.99) ..

Does the gauge at the garage not have a bar scale? That's how I usually do it. Go to

Just type:

into google. Hit send. Read screen.

if you want to know more.

Multiply bars by 14.5 to get lbs/sq.in. Or use a garage which has the gauge marked in both.

Thanks everyone

Thanks Tim. I just checked the book and the label on the dorr and both say

I fail to understand how anyone couldn't find the conversion from bar to psi within a few minutes, as suggested above. Everything is there on the internet, but unfortunately it does require a slight spark of intelligence to find the information and interpret it, which seems to be sadly lacking these days. I didn't even have to look, because I was educated in the

To email, substitute .nospam with .gl

Surely more use to download one of the many free convertor proggies which would do this conversion and many more?

It might have just been called atmospheric pressure then. ;-)

Using that logic, the same can be said for the most of the questions that are asked on this and other N/Gs.

Maybe some people are not as computer/internet literate as others like to think they themselves are!

a bar is about 14psi

My reply was intended more to help anyone else having a similarly straightforward question find their answer quickly and easily than directly to answer the OP. That is, to add to the collective computer/internet literacy. And, by so doing, encourage people to look for answers rather than ask for them.

It is somewhat easier than working out how to get an Oracle patch set installed. :-)

ROFL!

Irn-Bru, anyone?

impressed to see that it had my favourite unit of measurements the chain and the rod.

What on earth were they measuring years ago, presumably with chains and rods?

Land? ie fields.
