Hello all,

Got up this morning to a flat tyre on me car. Had the same thing couple of months ago, put in more air and it has lasted fine till now, so I think its to do with the shitty pot holes all around this area

Anyway, tried to pump up tyre with foot pump, didnt get anywhere (cant hear any air coming out), then just got one of those electric ones which says it can pump up a tyre in less than 4 mins - so I did that and its like no air is gettin into the tyre.

When I connected both pumps to the valve, no air came out, and when i push the valve in no air comes out. Need help, think there is a problem with the valve, how do I fix this??? Any experts out there???
