[original post snipped]
If you are quoting the specs from the manual, I was told that
they are wrong. The .014 should be much lower, it should read
more along the lines of .004 to .010. I would suggest that you
check with Ted Schumacher at TSI. He can be reached at:
tedtsimx@mail.bright.net
Or by telephone at:

Hope this helps.
