Jan 7, 2016 at 16:03 comment added njzk2 @O.M.Y. good point. it is a safety feature and should be treated as such
Jan 7, 2016 at 15:38 comment added O.M.Y. @njzk2 My comment wasn't a criticism of your answer, but rather an observation on the sad state of affairs where so many gas stations have failed to adequately maintain this vital tool for their customers.
Jan 7, 2016 at 15:36 comment added O.M.Y. @rana If there was a problem with the valve in the suspect tire it would probably not consistently give him the same 22lb reading every time. Also, even if it is just a partially blocked air-stem then blowing a little air into the tire would probably clear the stem and then a re-read of the tire pressure would tell the story.
Jan 7, 2016 at 14:45 comment added njzk2 @O.M.Y. you are right. I tend to see things from where I am, but that may not be valid for other places

Jan 7, 2016 at 8:29 comment added O.M.Y. @njzk2 perhaps it might be more accurate to say "[...] any well-maintained air pump in any well-run gas station [...]"

Jan 6, 2016 at 22:23 comment added njzk2 My tires are supposed to be (...) 30-34 PSI I got a reading of 22 PSI. -> Of course. (also, any air pump in any gas station will give you a precise reading when you inflate your tires, so you know when to stop exactly.)

Jan 6, 2016 at 21:07 comment added rana I would follow the gauge. Not how it "looks" like. I find it very strange that the pressure what is what you expect in the other tires. Could it be something wrong with the valve in that tire causing a faulty read out in the pressure gauge?
