Anything wrong with carrying those small air compressors in your trunk for such a case or whenever you need it? Would be easier instead of driving somewhere to ask Mohammad to turn on the pump.
Just saying

you can skip the charades, many stations will do it for you if you just ask.
Funny enough I just had to do this this am...
apparently ALL Petros got rid of their switch inside. Harvinder was like nope I cant do it, we dont have the button anymore.
I was like " oh helll naww". We laughed, held eachother and bitched about how much profit they already make.
Ru4real petro? Thats sad. So even if you get gas they cant do it and you still need $1.
So i went to shell and asked. bobble head did it right away.

Brake pedal squeaks a bit; slap some lube on and call it a day...
So you're covered, what about the brake pedal?

Brake pedal squeaks a bit; slap some lube on that and call it a day... just walk around reg's a bit, get some oil on your shoes. rub bottom of shoes on brake pedal actuator.

Wonder what CT or Parts Source sells them for... mo sells these... No need to worry. I've quarantined the civic till at least Sunday. Give standard auto a visit XD Seriously...! re: air compressors - I agree. I carry two. But it's bc I use it at the track and such. Handy to have regardless!

Thanks for the suggestions. So CT didn't carry it, the ones that sell non-oem ones ranged from $50-$130. Ended up grabbing a previously enjoyed one off of jdmrides for $30 and now, the civic is out of quarantine - free of the Ebolars.

I love using the proper tools. Last time I replace rear axle bushing (Probably 10 years ago in the old Jetta) I removed the entire rear axle and pounded them out with a hammer and put the new ones in with a C clamp, a 2x4 and a lot of swearing..
Today? Left everything in tact, removed the bolts, pivoted the rear beam down so I could access them, borrowed the specific VW tool from my mechanic buddy, done in about 15 mins per side
