tire valve stem torque, how much?
Got this from the internet: If the valve stem is loose, the assembly leaks. If it is too tight, corrosion will begin to form around the valve stem and a leak will soon follow. The recommended torque for standard aluminum wheel valve stems is 7 to 11 ft/lbs or 80 to 125 in/lbs
That seems like too much torque for a tire valve stem. What do you recommend?
Thanks in advance.
