Tired and sore

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Spent the afternoon and evening breaking down and patching front tractor tires....I had 4 flat 9.5L-15's, one 7.60-15 and a 20" tubeless that has slowly gone flat since I mounted it 4 years ago. Found out the 20" rim had imperfections that allowed leakage. Trying some gasket sealer on that one.  Also had a water filled multirib tubeless on one rim (California tire)...a little rust, but not as bad a a tubed 9.5L-15sl tri-rib filled with CaCl....It has been a bad year for flats! Still have a ruined car tire and blown trailer tire to replace. Now I can feel it in my shoulders, gettin too old for work like this!

	Wrestling tires is kinda like wrestling pigs... but the tires don't give up as easy.
	Ten Amendments, Ten Commandments, and one Golden Rule solve most every problem. Citrus hand-cleaner with Pumice does the rest.
