Mower is trying to kill me.

Oh and a few real oddballs too.

Hey man…I resemble that remark!!!

Dont know what kind of mower you ended up with but mine is a tractor style and uses no counter weigh and ran grasshoppers at work with a bagger system and had no counter weight on them so im wondering it the counter weight is really necessary aslong as your on flat ground.

I only use a tube if it’s a sidewall issue a bead leak are valve stem that’s not able to be fixed. In my opinion a patch is the best quick repair. I see a plug as a field repair to get back to the shop. I used to use slime often. It works sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t. It was pretty funny the other day when the girls had a quite a bit of company over and the big air mattress sprung a leak. I then taught those girls to install a tire patch. Their favorite part was when I lit the glue on fire to get the area super tacky. I wonder if that group of teenage girls will remember that life lesson. Air mattress held air for the whole week after that until it was deflated for storage.

Perhaps you can catch me up, but why didn't the wheel/tire go back to Lowes for replacement?

 

[Fyrtwuck]

I have a friend who owns a tire shop. If you want, I can take it to him and get it patched.

Capitol idea!

I will bring all the boolats, and some freaking awsome firearms.

I gotta see the sword, you still have it?

Oh gawd. Did you really just ask to see @RickN sword?

Rear engine 30 inch. Perfect for my yard and easy on and off for the wife and I. Well me anyway.

By the time we figured out it was not holding air, one more thing would have had us at war with Lowes. Tempers were getting short.

I think I would squirt it down good with soapy water and identify for sure where it is leaking.

If it's not too big, sink the whole thing in a bucket of water. That will let you identify ALL the holes. Or take it to one of the Tom's Tires, or equivalent in your area, and let them do it.
