Air Pump!


Recommended Posts

This is unheard of......me starting a thread in Workshop!

The reason is that I got my air pump delivered this morning.......

I was expecting something not much bigger than the battery ones, but this was a decent size!

Couldn't be bothered to look at the instructions, but I still got it working in seconds!

I've even got a vid of it in action!

Glad I got this cos the old pump is obviously misreading......front tyre was too low and the back one too high.

Sorted now, and a lot better than the physical effort of inflating them manually!

€50 well spent I'd say!

I've got to check the car as well, but that's enough physical exertion for today!

Forget about using pumps for measuring or adjusting tire pressure if you want to be precise, particularly chinese crap like that.

Get a good quality tire pressure gauge with a release valve, any motorsports online shop will sell them. Use any pump to overinflate the tires a little, then adjust using the quality tool made for that exact job.

Something like this:
