    2,3,4,6,7,8
  2. 8311. Why do most aircraft tire manufacturers recommend that the tubes in newly installed tires be first inflated, fully deflated, and then reinflated to the correct pressure?
    to allow the tube to position itself correctly inside the tire
  3. 8314. Why do tire and wheel manufacturers often recommend that the tire on split rim wheels be deflated before removing the wheel form the axle?
    As a safety precaution in case the bolts that hold the wheel halvses together have been damaged or weakend

  6. 8324. On an air valve core stem, what indicates high-pressure type?
    An embossed letter "H"
  7. 8325. The primary purpose for balanced aircraft wheel assemblies is to
    prevent heavy spots and reduce vibration
  8. 8330. The removal, installation, and repair of landing gear tires by the holder of a private pilot certificate on an aircraft owned or operated is considered to be

  13. 8361. Chines are used on some aircraft nose wheel tires to help
    deflect water away  from the fuselage
  14. 8362. the best safeguards against heat buildup in aircraft tires are

  15. 8363. The fusible plugs installed in some aircraft wheels will
    melt at a specified elevated temperature
  16. 8364. What action, if any, should be taken when thereis a difference of more than 5 pounds of air pressure in tires mounted as duals?
    correct the discrpancy and enter in the aircraft records

    At least 2 hours (3 hours in hot weather)
  18. 8366. Excessive wear in the shoulder area of an aircraft tire is and indication of
    underinflation
  19. 8367. Excessive wear in the center of the tread of and aircraft tire is and indication of
