one guy around here was blowing up condoms and pinching them off when he was sober so when he was drunk he just grabbed one stuck it on the mouthpiece and let it deflate. i would also assume an air compressor or the air in a can would work.

COMPLETE myth that this would work. You can google it if you dont believe me

If you have a SOBER buddy with you why not just let him drive? It wouldn't work to have him blow it in to get your car started because some systems test intermittently while you are driving.

I installed them when I worked at circuit city. Super easy, simpler than a remote start, just a starter kill relay. We didn't have anything to do with maintenance or up keep, but they paid great, way more than they should.

VILLAGE OF PEWAUKEE -- Police say a repeat drunken driver from Waukesha County used a portable air compressor and a balloon to get around the ignition interlock device on his van.

Because 45-year-old Paul Rupple had five prior drunken driving convictions, the device was installed that requires him to blow into it to start the van. If there's a hint of alcohol, the vehicle won't start.

you do have to hum, that's why you use a balloon, just pinch it a bit. one guy around here keeps a 25ft garden hose in his car, it transfers the hum, but it gets the reading before the alky gets all the way through.

i had one in my car for a year. never tried messing with it or figureing how it worked but i did have to go in and get it reset every now and then because they get false signals if you have an exhaust leak or are smoking in the car.
