Default Re: Finally, a good tire gauge at reasonable cost

Gauge now toast, so tossed it. I was constantly twisting the tip to get the right angle to seal on the valve stem. I still have two and they work, just not handily. Fix the tip so it stays in and make the tip straight instead of an angle and it would be a better tool.

That sounds strange Jerry. I have three of the AutoMeter 2343s too and never had a problem with the tip. I also have the AutoMeter 2160 that I keep in the garage. I like it better and easier to use and see the pressure since it has the hose. When I bought it years ago it was $8 less, but it is still a good buy today.
