Hi all,
I am seeking advise on how to inflate my vans tyres to 5.5 bar. The tyre pump I had with my car (working off 12v socket) was unable to achieve the pressure, likewise my foot pump. I eventually went to my local garage where the only way to get to the air pump is to que in the fuel lanes which are always full.
I did a little research online and people were recommending a "Ring RAC900 heavy duty tyre compressor". This has to be run off the battery terminal. On checking my van to see how practical this would be, I have found I cannot access the battery terminals. My van is based on a Fiat Ducato.
Can anyone advise on an alternative method of achieving the required pressure ? I am not very technical minded as far as vehicles are concerned.
