This was a huge help!

[@generalprinciple5921]

Glad it helped.

[@wyattwyatt3844]

That's awesome thanks

[@thesillybilly]

The wind in the video was almost unbearable. But thanks for the tips. You wouldn’t think that putting a patch on was that hard till you have to re-do one for the third time. lol

[@generalprinciple5921]

Glad it helped . Yeah I can’t control the weather.

[@michaelcollins1899]

3 patches same spot. You have something in the tire for sure

[@generalprinciple5921]

You bet!

[@Deere55]

You can get those valve stem patches that you mentioned from gemplers

[@generalprinciple5921]

Ok thank you!!!

[@randyvinson7928]

Many thinks

[@lawrencecavens5760]

Finally a video to show how its done. By the Way What was the size of the tube??

[@generalprinciple5921]

Lawrence Cavens 👍🏼 16.9/24 tractor tube

[@christopherjones5397]

Great video! Only recommendation is to turn the, I'm guessing, fan off. Thanks for posting!

[@generalprinciple5921]

Thanks ! Sorry It was just very windy.

[@shanookka6565]

Thank you

[@generalprinciple5921]

You bet! Good luck!

[@Shroommduke]

I hope you checked the tire for whatever is making them holes so close together!

[@generalprinciple5921]

I did.....and still couldn’t find it!! But the tire is shot!

[@mikedarrow3809]

Can you use isopropyl alcohol instead of lacquer thinner?

[@generalprinciple5921]

Sure.

[@powerram92]

What type or brand of patches do you use for tractor tires? The only ones I can find is the slime brand for lawn mowers lol.

[@generalprinciple5921]

powerram92 I don’t know the brand, I get them from my local private owned parts store but you can find them on eBay or Amazon too

[@johndowe7003]

Hornet radial tire patches is what i use, get em on amazon for like 10$ for 50 patches. my local autoparts store wanted 75 cents a piece so i just bought my own patches and cement.

[@generalprinciple5921]

As mush stuff as I do around here I try and save wherever I can.

[@powerram92]

@@generalprinciple5921 that's how I am I'll go out and buy a tool that cost way more then the repair but then I know next time it will pay for itself

[@scottbrown9685]

Have you buffed your tyre down? You keep getting punctures in that same bit of the tyre? Buff the tyre and put a patch on the tyre where it’s puncturing the tube then you won’t need to keep fixing it.

[@generalprinciple5921]

Scott Brown yes I have buffed it, ground it and booted it but these tires are getting a lot of cracks in them

[@scottbrown9685]

@@generalprinciple5921 put a patch on the tyre too?

[@epmcdonald4562]

@@scottbrown9685 grinded and booted what do you think that means?🤔🙄 and you reply back again patch on tire?

[@robertadamson1942]

I would get a new tube for the tire and use the one you are patching for swimming.

[@generalprinciple5921]

Some times we do

[@tubyou788]

Please what song in the start of the video . Thanks

[@generalprinciple5921]

Simple man by lynyrd skynyrd always a good one!

[@job38four10]

That wind noise was almost unbearable. I never heard of using lacquer thinner for cleaning tubes, I thought the sanding disc that comes with the patch kit was good enough, thanks for sharing. Also do you think all tire repair kits are equal, any better then others, auto part store vs Walmart?

[@generalprinciple5921]

Job38 Four we have since changed our camera for recording. Sorry about the noise. Glad you could still get something out of the video

[@user-ve7cl3jf3i]

it became expensive to blow up

[@generalprinciple5921]

Sorry to hear that. Good luck.

[@searchingscarecrow5013]

That's awesome thanks
