Exhaust Powered Car Jack - Terrible Idea?

[NUEZ]

''Sick of conventional car jacks and their cliche use of leverage? Now you can fix a flat tire, look underneath your car, or just start some kind of weird new car posing stance with ease by using your car’s exhaust to power this inflatable car jack! ''

.....Actually I am quite happy with my conventional trolley jack. It is strong, reliable and not full off heated poisonous gas.

People buy them for offroad use, specifically sand driving. Jacks sink, big inflatable bags dont.

Like the man with leg braces.... I stand corrected.

We've used them on rally cars before now and they worked well.

I remember a device for inflating tyres that involved removing a spark-plug, inserting an adaptor with a long tube, connecting the other end to the tyre valve, and then starting the engine!

My dad used it to inflate an inner-tube for me to use at the beach.
