lesson learned~
go to pep boys, pay $4 for a patch kit
spend 20 minutes in the parking lot patching it

96 stang i had a similar problem AT THE SAME LOCATION. i was across teh street at the kfc and i noticed i had a nail in my tire so i did a quick air check with the finger (i know its not accurate) and went across the street to there. They say 20 mins he comes back after they put the spare on and after 1 hour its redicuolous. then after five more mins he tells me the nail was only a half an inch so they took it off and guess wshat 30 mins later im back on the road. andt hey cahrged me 12 bux to waste my time.

more to the story...i after i went back at 2:15..when the guy said no problem to be done at 2:15...my dad and i went in to find they didnt even take my tire off yet..i had work at 2:30 so i took my dads truck and my dad waited and called me at 3:30 sayin he just got home...i am furious right now..they didnt charge us much at all...but i wanted it done right and not an outside patch kit...they patch the inside of the tire...i will never go there again...

I go to the local garage for that. They do it, $10 and 3 minutes and you're out of there good as new.
