Adding air to tires .. Need recommendation
Seems I have troubles adding air to the camaro tires with my air compressor. Haven't ever had much troubles with any other cars. Wondered what air filler attachment everyone is using that likes it enough to recommend it. See many lock on and am leaning that direction as currently I just have the simple air attachment and it seems to either let more air out or doesn't get proper connection to inflate.

Go to nearest DMV and turn in your license.

I use an air chuck similar to this and have no problems. You might just need to buy a new one. Most of the ones you buy like this are made in China. They are cheap and do not last forever. Any place that sells compressors will sell these air chucks.

Valve stems are generally all the same. If you aren't having problems with other cars, you shouldn't be with this one.
Have you ever had a flat tire, and used one of those sealant kits? I've seen that make a mess with the connector on an air compressor before.

What's the PSI read out on your compressor? Maybe there's an issue either with your compressor or attachment. If for whatever reason your compressor's pressure isn't greater than your tire's pressure 30lbs +, it won't do any good.

PSI on the compressor is 110. Probably time to buy a new chuck. One I have is the one they included with the compressor so likely the cheap china junk. Have had the compressor for about 8 years now.
