As an aside, I went back and did the calculations instead of the rough estimate in the previous post.

With a starting pressure of 13.00 PSIg at 70F

An increase to 105F would mean the pressure increased to 14.83 PSIg.
A drop to -15F would mean the pressure would decrease to 8.55 PSIg.

Thank you for buttoning down the correct figures. Your numbers don't lie. I give up. But I will leave you with these words of Albert Einstein:

“In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.”

I believe he spoke these words in an address to NASCAR.
