Or you can find some one that has a Cheetah air tank. (This is what I always use now)
OLDER tires are never to be seated with starting fluid, because the force of the flare up CAN blow through any weak spot in the sidewall (as one driver I knew did, and lost his beard, stash, and eyebrow on the right side!)
