Can't pump air into tyre

[fillit]

Hi guys,

I'm having problems with one of my tyres as nothing happens when i try to pump air into it, my other 3 tyres works perfectly fine however with this particular one it seems only selective service stations manage to get it working (safeway/shell/7 eleven - which sucks cos i fill bp) :S is there any D.I.Y i can do to get it fixed?

Regards

The valve must be stuffed. Id try taking it to a tyre place and get prices for them to change them. It wouldnt cost very much.

the valve core in that one tyre could be damaged. you will have to deflate the tyre, remove the old valve stem core and replace it.

the small tool required and new valve stem core can be bought from SCA for under $10
