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 | |

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? | |
