    I'm in utah. Cut out no higher than 130 cut in no lower than 85. Low pressure warning after 75 and before 55. No more than 4 psi loss in 1 minute. Correct?

    Don't have my book on me right now to check.

    Yes that is specific to Utah as well as most all other states. Verbiage may vary but yes that is correct. Good luck on your tests!

    You got it! Bellow 60 and above 130. Temp varies depending on vehicle. Oil is correct. Main thing to remember is the air pressure. Warning then when brakes engage.

    When should the brakes engage?

    ok let me line all this up one more time to make perfect sure, i dont wanna fail this part for the obvious reason that I will not pass lol.

    Cut out: 130
    Cut in: 85
    Warning Lights: Before 60, nothing specified for after a certain psi
    Brakes engage: 20 - 45 psi (Vehicle specification)
