Flat tyre on the highway: Puncture repair kit and air pump saved my day

I threaded the plug material through the eyelet and then stabbed it into the tyre. This actually takes a significant amount of force.

BHPian bblost recently shared this with other enthusiasts:

I entered the Hyderabad ORR from the TSPA Junction, and less than min or so later, the low-pressure warning popped on my dashboard.

Pulled over the car and found the embedded screw looking back at me.

Put the warning triangle a couple of meters behind the car.

Removed the screw.

I carry a puncture repair kit and an air pump in the car.

Made the hole a little bigger.

Threaded the plug material through the eyelet and then stabbed it into the tire.

This actually takes a significant amount of force.

Used my box cutters to trim it up.

Back on the road in less than 10 mins after topping up the air.
