You'll get all kinds of ideas on how to stop the shimmy. Check all
nuts tight on the scissors assembly, then tire balance.
Tire pressure is usually not the culprit.

Subject: [COUPERS-TECH] Correct tire inflations
----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----
Hello all,
My wife Carole and I are proud owners of Ercoupe
N415CB, (formerly N87337), which we bought last April. It's a 1946 415C,
serial number 510.
My question is this; Can someone tell me the correct
tire inflations? I have found conflicting information in several Ercoupe
manuals. The nose wheel is 5.00 x 5, and the mains are 6.00 x
6.
I have a fairly severe shimmy at landing
speeds, which stops at about 40 mph or so. There seems to be no
shimmy on takeoff. I'm thinking that incorrect nose wheel inflation could
be the culprit.
