That junk from your local auto store is about useless. Its just compressed air with gunk in it ...try to get that into a flat.

The kits take out the pin inside the stem, insert the slime, then use a compressor to put air back into the tire.

Thanks for the advice--well said and well taken. Any place I can pick something like this locally and on a Sunday?

Any MINI dealer will have the OEM kit for the MC, probably pricey. Tirerack is closeby ... DE I think, If your order from them, you can get a kit probably by Tuesday. Dunno otherwise. You can get a cheap compressor at Sears but thats not enuff and a waste since the kits come with a compressor.
