Those spark plug tire pumps were available locally at most hardware 
store/automotive supply shops years ago. I think theres a nearly new one 
  not too far from me now thats still in the box. I've never used one so 
don't know too much about them.
My Dad did have the John Deere p.t.o. tire pump years ago and when I was 
a kid it was the preferred method of pumping up tires, seeing as the 
only other option was the hand pump in those days before air 
compressors. The little JD saw a lot of use and I recall it had a bit of 
a loose connecting rod that would rattle some when the pressure got up 
there. Unfortunately that little pump got loaned out to a neighbour many 
years ago and never did make it back home. I saw a N.I.B. one at a farm 
auction about three years ago but did not wait around to see what it 
sold for. I'd bet it sold for more than the "new" price.
