Yeti SB160 setting sag

Hi! I am new to Yeti. Bought a SB160 (C2, 90 build) recently. I have questions about the suspension setting. I weigh 143 lbs, and according to Fox, the fork (Fox 38 Performance) air pressure recommendation is 72-80 psi for 120-150lbs rider. I started with 75 psi (as that’s what I have on my other bikes (Fox 36 Factory)) but I can’t get the sag. I can only get 38mm sag after dropping the pressure to 60 psi, which is only 22% (out of a 170mm travel Fox 38). I also have tried both pressures on trail. 75 psi is definitely too hard (like I have no suspension or had it locked out). And for the shock I also have to lower my normal pressure (180 psi on my other bike, Fox DPX2) to 160 psi to get about 23% sag. I wonder if this is just what Yeti is? Why 15-20 psi lower than the “norm”? BTW, the bike is nice, it picks up speed so fast that made me feel it had a hidden motor…

Frustration with Fillmore valves

I have a 2025 Heckler SL that came with “Fillmore” valves that don’t have removable valve cores. I can’t fill sealant through the valve (I’ve tried with a syringe, a small bottle of Stan’s with a sharp tip…any pressure will spill or the valve will “burp” it out in a few seconds). I have to use tire irons, unseat the bead, fill, then use a compressor to reseat the bead. How is this “coreless valve” a good idea? What if I need to fill some sealant while out on a trail?
