I was wondering if there are any gas or service stations (within 5 miles of the Villages), other than all the WaWa gas stations and the BJ's gas station, which provide FREE pumped air for any member of the public to pull in and and access?

There so many cheap air compressor pumps on market why would want hassle to find free gas stations for air when they might be broke anyway?
Here one example which works great, had pressure settings and automatic shut off. Robot or human? This can easily be stored in cart or car. |

Tops is right, when I have a rental car and the tire is low I can never find a working free or pay air pump as most all are junk or broken. Most portable air pumps on the market are inexpensive and do the job well. Some may have Memorial Day sales?

A decent quality air compressor is a necessity in any garage. Not only are they great to have around to insure your automobiles, golf carts, bikes, etc.. have proper tire PSI, but the blower attachment has so many uses. For residential use, a good quality oil less air compressor can be purchased at Lowel’s or Home Depot for under $100.

Go to Lowes and by a compact tire inflator. I do all my tires once a month and my bicycle more often.

Dewalt has a portable compressor. Charge the battery, connect to your tire and then dial in the pressure you want and press start. Walk away as the compressor will stop when the tire pressure dialed in is reached.

I stop at any dealership for free.
What’s wrong with WaWa? Free air and $1 coffee $2.50 breakfast sandwich

You can go to Home Depot and buy a high pressure portable Ryobi air pressure unit with the battery and charger for $89. It’s automatic and will inflate anything you have up to 160 pounds of pressure. The battery charge lasts for months and you can take it with you. Just setup the pressure you want connect it to the tire - press the start button and it stops when it reaches the setting.

Go on Amazon and get you a Yantu air pump for under $60. I have several. They are great and easy to use. No need for a tire gauge.

Agree with all the above. I got one that you set the tire pressure and it turns off at that pressure. I also keep it in the trunk just in case.
PS For the car up north, the dealership is near & they do it for free.
