if there is no pin to push against the gas station chuck what allows the air to leave the gas station pump/hose/chuck to fill the tire??? doesn't it have to be valve pin against pump chuck pin?
Operator error? Did you have the presta valve open?
All of the air hoses at the shop I volunteer at have "gas station" type air chucks(we get them for cheap at Harbor Frieght). Of course they work great for schrader valves. For a presta, we screw on a standard adapter, and fill em up. Never a problem.
