Steps You Must Take Before Pumping up Tubeless Tire with Sealant Inside

[@fudgey91]

I've searched bloody everywhere on how to inflate with sealant already inside and this is the only video I can find. Thanks

8 or 4 o'clock, and wait a bit. Not the position shown in this video that actually keep the sealant inside the valve.

Thank you!

Great advice - Unfortunately too late for me as I did indeed get sealant into my pump - Joe Blow Booster (as used in this video) - Any ideas on what I can now do to clean out the pump?

[@stephenschousen742]

Stick the base in water and pump water through it

I've tried it but it doesn't work. The air is escaping along the rim so the tyre doesn't inflate ... I guess I will need to buy a special pump or an air compressor to make it work.

[@edwards7862]

do you need to use a special kind of pump? I know there are pumps and intended for tubeless inflation, but what isn't clear to me is whether a regular floor pump can be used instead.

I'm new to the sport so I'm not 100%, but I believe its the type of valve used on bike tires these days that doesn't allow for a regular floor pump to be used. To my knowledge, you need a pump that is compatible with the two main types of valves, Presa and/or Schrader. Most are compatible with both these days. Hope that helps!

My pump head is moving and its leaking air and lube

Why not 180 degrees?

I search and i find, attempting to do my first tubeless in a non tlr tyre and rim.

Silly me, wish i knew. Oh wait, the company who sells the bikes have an obligation to alert you, just saying.

[@blackdarth3805]

Yeah, this worked horribly. Thanks!
