Yes, what a dis-service these places are, something that used to be a complimentary part of a service station, is now a royal pain in the @ss.

Now I realize there are things behind the scenes, a compressor to maintain, power bills to pay, hoses and fittings, chocks for the public to abuse/steal like they do public restrooms, I know enough about the owners end because in conjunction with our old ford tractor dealership, we were also full service Mobil station adjoined, matter of a fact thats what started the business long before us.

I had the same thing happen, come home from work, must have hit something, tire just about off the rim, I made it up the hill a busy 4 lane corridor, running the bead on the rim, stop at 3 places within sight of each other, first 2 are broke, last one same thing .75 cents please and no air, middle easterner owner, blah blah mumbo jumbo... finally got air so I did not get stuck, only 1.5 miles to the house, but it would have burned up or whatever happens when you keep running on a flat, lucky it did stay on the bead.

The thing with those cigarette lighter plug in emergency compressor, warning/flash light things is they are slow and cheaply made, they do the job, someone ought to build a better quality one, they do work and will save you in a bind.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a ...
