And I'll second the wisdom of carrying an electric pump as an on-the-road fix.
Mine's a cheap FLAPS pump but works fine and installs in seconds
(really... seconds):

Have used it more on others' cars than mine and most run out and buy
one once they have had mine bail them out.
As Randall notes, useful for all kinds of things -- I even use it to
easily fill & bleed the coolant in my VW camper (usually a
park-on-a-hill, run-back-&-forth, stand-on-your-head task).
