Freebird Posted August 16, 2012 Share #1 Posted August 16, 2012 Had a flat on the trailer about 3 weeks ago. I think I can plug it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a1bummer Posted August 16, 2012 Share #2 Posted August 16, 2012 Better use one of those "boots' you apply from the inside. If that doesn't do it, try Seafoam. It fixes everything else, right? Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry.B Posted August 16, 2012 Share #3 Posted August 16, 2012 I think if you use the chunks of rubber flying off a Metzler ME880 tire you could probably plug your tire and have spear rubber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvester Posted August 16, 2012 Share #5 Posted August 16, 2012 I believe that Seafoam cures everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike G in SC Posted August 16, 2012 Share #6 Posted August 16, 2012 And just when did you realize it was getting soft? Oh, and never mix Seafoam with Balance Beads,,, sparks,,, don't ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted August 16, 2012 Share #8 Posted August 16, 2012 Mike, this is a PG site. Let's stick to the topic of the flat tire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomephil Posted August 16, 2012 Share #9 Posted August 16, 2012 Whatever you use, don't use blue locktite... Well maybe if you use it with seafoam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brake Pad Posted August 16, 2012 Share #11 Posted August 16, 2012 always carry an extra tube of Liquid nail, and after it dries in, squirt it with some windex, tire fixed:confused24: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted August 16, 2012 Share #12 Posted August 16, 2012 And here I thought Seafoam was just for engines. I thought that a bag of uncooked rice fixed everything else..... Yea that'll do it, just put it in a bag of uncooked rice for a month and it will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KIC Posted August 16, 2012 Share #22 Posted August 16, 2012 Ace Hardware sells that can of spray on rubber. Just coat the inside and you should get another 80 to 90 thousand miles out of that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcarl Posted August 16, 2012 Share #25 Posted August 16, 2012 It's the acid rain I tell, shouldn't have left that baby laying there for so long. Get some baking soda, make a good slurry and throw it over the tire, wait til it quits foaming and then add the duct tape to cover up the mess. To re inflate, put propane torch into the tire and let it blow in there for about 5 minutes or so, no fire, stand back a little, then light it up and watch how cleanly a job is done.
