How do I put air in my car tires????

Question

Never had to do it before~

Answer 1

A lot of air hoses at convenience stores have a built in gauge. Find the valve stem on your tire(a small, black tubie-thing) and unscrew the valve cap. get the air hose on, it may take 50cents, and firmly place the air hose end onto the valve stem. They will match up, and push the air hose end down onto the valve stem. Air will go into your tires, but if there is an air gauge, it should read between 30 and 35 pounds of pressure-this is the normal rate for regular cars. If it's a truck, you may have to put more like 35-40. Check your owners manual, or read the side of the tire for maximum air pressure recomendations. If all else fails, go to a tire shop and have them do it for $1.

Answer 2

Look at the wheels on your car. Find the rubber or metal thing sticking out of the wheel. remove the cap if there is one . use a tire pressure Gauge to find the pressure in the tire and if it is below the manufacturers recommendation take the air hose and put the metal end of the hose on the end of the valve, and put some air in by pressing down on the valve to fill tire .It should sound like it's filling up not a loud hiss. Keep checking the air pressure after a few seconds to make sure you don't over inflate the tire .if you do take the cap you took off the wheels valve and use the top of the cap [to push on that pin looking thing until you get it right. Do this for all tires when they are cold. Good luck

Answer 3

You first need an accurate pressure gauge. There is a sticker, usually inside the driver's door jamb, that tells you the recommended pressures for front and back.

Check them with your gauge when they are cold, not after they have been driven very far because driving heats them up and changes the pressure reading. Use a bicycle pump or one of the lighter powered pumps to add air if needed. Do not trust the indicator on the pump; check the pressure only with your gauge.

Answer 4

Ah go to a gas station they have air for like 25 cents or whatever, unscrew the valve on the inside of the tire, align the hose and presto air goes in (hopefully)

Answer 5

Just unscrew the valve cap and put the air hose to it. Check the tire max pressure on the side of the tire and fill to within 5 pounds of the max.

Answer 6

Find a repair shop and tell them the pressure you want them to be pumped to, according to your owners' manual.
Or find a gas station with public machines. Unscrew the black cover on the tire and push the air nozzle directly on.
Get a pressure monitor to check the pressure accordingly.

Answer 8

Remove the cap on the valve stem and place the air hose nozzle over it and hold it down on the valve stem and wait for it to fill up then use a gauge to check it

Answer 9

Like the others said, but if you don't know how much to put in, its usually around 32 to 35 lbs.

Just ask someone who works at the petrol station (or garage) to show you how it's done. It's very simple, but difficult to explain.
