Default About Airing Up

I got a new ARB compressor and tire inflator kit. Now, I want to set it up so that I can just clip the hose on the valve and let it go, no back and forth between the tire guage and air. I thought I could add an in line air regulator to the line, and have it go to 32 psi and shut off automatically--no bleeding air off afterward, etc. But I cant find what I need......I bought an "NPS Air Adjusting Valve that looks like an in line regulator, but all it does is leak air when I try to make an adjustment.

I'd appreciate it if anyone can point me in the right direction before I drop another $20 on the wrong part, haha. Pics would be a great help too!

wal mart sells a tire inflation kit. Think it's ten bucks. Gauge and snap on connection included

Thanks for the tip. I was out and about today and found what I was looking for at sears. It's an inline regulator that allows me to fill to 32 psi and then shut down.

No link but you can find what you need in the air tool/compressor section. Its an adjustable inline regulator...
