Default Air for tires

Is there a service station close to 466A that has air for tires?

The station at Colony has air. It is coin operated. Takes quarters.

Every time I tried to get air at the gas station in Colony Plaza the machine is broken. I don't even bother going there for air anymore.

I have an air compressor that plugs into a cigarette lighter plug that works well for cars, bikes, and golf carts. I can't remember how much it costs but I'm sure it wasn't expensive. I probably got it at Walmart.

Another possibility would be a small "pancake" type air compressor. $50 to $75 or so. Works great on all types of tires and with an air hose and nozzle works great on cleaning out window rails, door rails etc. anyway good for more than just filling tires

I have a tank compressor back in NY and have been trying to avoid buying more "stuff" here, but one of the small pancake compressors may be a good solution ...

I have one of them, but it tends to blow the car fuse so I hook up direct to battery ... may continue ... it works ....
