It’s not air, it’s adjustment.

Mayny ancient cars had valves with 2 holes in them for valve grinding tools to engage in - others had slots for screwdrivers - then someone invented the rubber sucker!

Very nice old set.
The Hex drive is often overlooked, its just as good as the square but often undervalued. Winchboy collects vintage Britool so if you are stuck for anything Britool let me know
Here is his favourite set the guy had owned it for 60 years!
