Thanks, old. Just thought maybe the extra weight might flatten the tread out more on the bottom and would need more pressure to get the tire tread to sit the same on the ground as one without the fluid.
Another memory from work..... we had a M-F test tractor that I was told had lead powder in the tires. I know it had some kind of powder because when driving it, you had to keep the speed down or the powder would start following the tire around and get WAY out of balance. We had a test track west of the plant and you didn't want to "road speed" this one to the track. Also had to be careful checking the pressure and I don't know how many tire gages were plugged up with that powder. There would always be some in the valve stem and you soon learned to blow it out first before checking.
