That air compressor looks frightfully similar to the one that came with my Insight, just slightly more damp
Never mind the compressor, it leaks air when you try to screw it on the tire and again when you unscrew it so you never know exactly how high the pressure is in the tire you've just inflated. Especially when you set the pressure to levels some ecomodders would use

Good luck. Happy to subscribe to this thread, sorry for the blah.

PS The Insight is just a flattened and streched Fit. Mine came with no spare but a boot floor that can be lowered and a big block of plastic foam that can be removed to enlarge the boot to van size proportions. So bad someone filled that bay halfway with some battery stuff <hiding for impact/>

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
