![[4K] Park Tool PFP-8 PUMP Review](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/TUDuBTGNEck/mqdefault.jpg)
God bless.i was too shy to ask how a pump would work.
Finally i could pump my kid's bicycle.
Thank you so much.
Thankyou for clarifying what that air release is when you take it ft the valve. Really good video thanks.
thank YOU!
I learned how to pump my bike because of you guys thanks so much!
Thank you for this thorough instructional video.
Thank you for your brilliant video! Concise, informative, and very clear. Amazing video!
I just replaced my ratty old Schwinn pump with the PFP-8 and it's a major upgrade. Up to full pressure in less than ten strokes, a confident locking head and a giant gauge that's easy to read. Thanks, Park Tools!
This channel is always coming through with the real info we need, thank you
Thank You so much. That saved me bunch of trouble
nice and easy way to tech!
Thank you for this video
My whole life I thought you push down to unlock, no wonder I would always be difficult to put on and take off, hope I didn’t damage the part that goes on to valve and still works like intended.
Very helpful. Thanks.
Thanks a lot, very helpful
Thanks for making this video for others. My lifeline floor pump is now pushing air out as soon as I reach 50 psi, it use to go up to 120 psi. Its 4 years old. Does that mean I need a new pump?
That helped me, thank you.
Special thanks for you ❤️
Question my LBS said to air the tires to the max pressure since your a heavy set but I have this to ask on the presta valve do I have to deflate it first? Or can I pump it like that? I'm asking cause my lbs said to pump it before every ride
I saw more than 20 reviews about floor pump and none of them talk about the gauge, always the head pump always...
Right! Can we get some gauge help??
Thank you so much !!
I always wanted to know what the thumb lock is for? does it lock the valve head in place?
My new floor pump schrader valve, the head lock is coming out after it reaches particular pressure.
What could be the reason?
Thank you
Do they still sell floor pumps with a connector head that screws into the Schreader valve (via the threads on the Schreader valve)? For me, it was easier to seat and secure the connector to the tire valve.
No matter what I do my dual valve only pump through the presta. Even on new pumps.
Mine would only pump through the shrader. I have a little puff from my lips & it loosened the check valve inside. My pump was new, but had been marked down. It must have been sitting a long time.
You might just tap the hose end on the floor?
What would be the reason for the gauge not working?
Thank u
Good
can you tell me how I sought the air from coming out of the needle that's going to blow up a basketball and make it come out of the pump to blow up a tire please?
The heads of these pumps uses a rubber ball inside that moves back and forth to block the side you are not using. If air is coming out the wrong hole, the ball is stuck, sometimes from moisture that builds up inside the pump. Sometimes simply tilting the head can free the ball to let it float over and block. Another method is to free it by a smack. Hold the pump head flat in you hand. Smack in down on a work bench, flat. Now pump you thumb over one hole and pump. Now switch to the other hole and pump again. It should switch between the two to block them.
@@parktool I will try that today.. THANK YOU I thought I was crazy....
Why mine gets air from one side
The air only comes out of the Schrader valve when I'm trying to pumpa presta valve using my consumer Park Tools pump. What's the fix?
There is a check ball in the head that is probably stuck. You can try to dislodge it by hitting the head on a hard surface and then retrying. Or follow this guide. www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/pfp-4-and-pfp-2-service
Hi, what are the dimensions of PFP-7 PROFESSIONAL FLOOR PUMP?
The PFP-7 is approximately 26.5" tall by 10.5" wide by 6.5" deep. With the feet folded up, it is approximately 6" wide.
Thanks!
when I use the Shrader air comes out of the Presta hole. What am I doing wrong?
The design on these head use a rubber ball inside. It floats back and forth between the two, Presta and Schrader, to block the one not in use. Over time these can collect moisture and gunk and can start to stick. Typically you can free the ball by a controlled impact. Hold the head in the flat of your hand. Smack in down flat on a work bench. Put your thumb over each end and pump, the ball should move to block the opposite hole. If it is necessary to get inside see www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/pfp-6-and-pfp-3-service
@@parktool omg I had the same problem on my brand new pump and I just followed your advice and works great!!! Thank you so much kind sir you just made my day!!! 😄🤗
Overbearing blasting loud music is not necessary at the end but thanks for the video
At 1:46 he must mean hose, or tube of the pump, not the tube in the tire bicycle. Or maybe it is tubeless tire, but he should have said hose of the pump to be clear.
+Quinton Baker Whoops! Yes, you are correct.
For some reason the Dial’s numbers aren’t working idek what I’m doing wrong :(
The gauge could have worn out or broken. We do have replacment gauges. it could also be the 1 way valve. Contact Info@parktool with a detailed run down of what is going on with your pump and we will get back to you with the best option for you. Thanks for reaching out.
The air you hear escaping is not from the tire, it’s from the tube! LOL. Tube goes inside the tire. Lol
Doesn’t work, 5 years putting my thumb on the top so air doesn’t escape.
What is wrong? No matter how I put it on
The valve,
I must be stupid as a door nail because I for five years have not figured out they are always comes out no matter what I have watched over 25 over 5 yrs videos how to do it but my pump does not act like that so now this will be my sixth year they put my thumb over the top so i can pump my tire to ride :( lol bike shop wants me to run it over and they will show me. Alright I lol ride bike other flat tires 1O miles. :(
Folk
I don't like it. I don't know how to make it work.
