Comment on What happens of you use the gas from the exhaust pipe to inflate a tire?

You’d fill a tire with pretty low pressure, dirty, mostly co2, I’d assume. It probably wouldn’t be drivable and even if it was the small amount of oil and fuel residue would likely damage the inside of the tire after a while.
There are some cool gadgets that you screw into a spark plug socket in the engine and crank it over with the starter to inflate a tire. You’d want to unplug the fuel injector(s) or you’d be turning the tire into a bomb.
