[QUOTE="NO HAND, post: 750924, member: 18937"] Hi guys, How is it possible to verify if we put too much oil in a shock or not enough? I have used one guideline in the past but I wonder if it is reliable :think: . What I have been using is: once everything is finished and assembled, but BEFORE filling with nitrogen, I depress the bladder and release the 50 lbs of air I had put in previously and see if the bladder cap lowers. -If it lower between 1/16" to 1/8" I guess I'm fine. -If it lowers more than 1/8", there must not be enough oil. -And, if it doesn't lower at all, I'm afraid I got too much oil and the bladder might be collapsed. Is that the right way to check if I've put enough oil? [/QUOTE]
