Had to fix the right front on the old gals golf cart and the right front on the dang lawn mower today. Both a real pain. Shoulda replaced her goof cart tire but didn't feel like looking for the other tire. Sure glad I gots this HF small tire machine. It aint near as nice as the professional unit I had at the tire shop, but it worked. And then I was gonna start on both rear tires on the AC 200. Both 8 ply 18.4x38 Firestone's. Very slow leaks. Thought i had fluid leaking out around the stems. Dang, got lucky, just had to replace both core housings. Once in a blue moon a guy gets lucky that way. Gonna start cutting hay next week, get to try out my new grease gun. One of them lock and lube outfits. Hope it works as good as the reviews.

Had the same thing a week ago on the !90. It was a little low and though I would have to dig in. I checked that insert and it was leaking around threads. Lucked out. J Carlson

I don't change golf cart tires, got a dealer not far away that replaces factory sets with fancy larger tires and wheels, sells the takeoffs for $35each or $100 a set. Now I just gotta feniggle a lug nut off him as I guess I forgot to tighten one down.

Been pretty well tossing valve stems on anything tubeless unless has a metal stem with rubber seals, seems the solid rubber ones develop leaks around the brass insert over a few years as age rot. Tubes seem to last a taste longer and they do make repair patch valve stems for them as the tube usually remains in decent order being enclosed in the tires.
