Yes .
Way back when JC Whitney, Warshawsky, Blue Star, and Western Auto stores
sold such a thing.
I have one for my 49 Chevy PU which I bought one of these for back in
59.
It aired the tires up real nice.
The hose is old and rotten now-but if I made a new hose it would still
work good.
I used it often on my old Dunlop tires on my Ariel Square 4 motorcycle
too.
Darn tubes would leak down once in awhile.
Good Morning,
Fred

 �Fred,
������������Have you ever tried this? Have you
ever drove down the highway after filling one of your tires with a
compressed gasoline/air mixture? Sounds like a bomb to me?

Mr. David,
Why even enter into an unknown, by trying to use the AC compressor, that
will more than likely burn up due to petroilis neglegtis? Small 12 volt
air compressors you can buy for small money and get the same results
with no problems.
Or I have seen the engine used as an air compressor. Pull a plug and
hook a hose to any cylinder turn the engine over and it will pump more
air than the ac compressor with no oil loss. Good Morning

This is why I am going to have a pressure tank in the treasure chest of

Dave, my man, while I've never had reason to test the CFM @ PSI rating
of a Vanagon A/C compressor, I would think it might be capable of
handling at least one Badger air brush before it runs out of smoke. If
you really need to spin some air tools in the outback, why not do what
the big boys do and tote along a freshly charged scuba tank . . . oh,
and a regulator of course.
