How to Find the Tire Pressure of a 1995 Volvo Wagon

Tire pressure measures the amount of air in a vehicle's tires. Knowing the correct tire pressure--measured in pounds per square inch, or PSI--and consistently monitoring it are an important aspect of vehicle safety. The correct tire pressure keeps your vehicle safe, because tires affect braking, cornering and stability. Traveling with deflated tires may cause tire failure, placing you and everyone near you in danger. You can find information on the 1995 Volvo wagon's tire pressure by contacting Volvo directly, consulting your owner's manual or checking various places on your vehicle.

      Check the tire pressure label. The label is located inside the fuel filler cap on some models. Remove the fuel filler cap and search for a PSI rating. The numbers preceding the PSI represent the recommended tire pressure.

      Check the pressure of your tires. Remove the cap from the tire valve stem by twisting it off. Insert the tire gauge into the valve stem. The tire gauge's hand will rest on a number identifying your tire pressure. If the tire pressure is in the recommended PSI range, replace the valve stem cap. If you need air, insert a tire air pump and fill your tire with air. Check the pressure again with the gauge to ensure the proper PSI. Repeat the process for each tire.
