The MV-50 type air compressor seemed to be a widely-used, low-priced, fairly reliable unit so I ordered one on-line. Parts of it seem a little flimsy, but it should work for basic tire inflation, etc.
My question: is there not a check-valve or something to provide a similar function? When I attach the hose to a tire valve, air flows out of the tire back through the compressor. Is this normal or did I get a lemon?
