It can help to slightly inflate the tube (just enough to get a bit of shape) to get any folds out and to prevent pinching the tube with the tire levers. Another nice how to video!
Thanks for the tip!
I also add a light dusting of baby powder to any inner tubes I install. Bikes, mowers, mopeds, whatever. Helps the tube slide into place and not get bound up inside the tire.
@@corey6393 Then inflate the tube to maybe 5-10 psi and deflate to straighten any folds before final inflation.
@@corey6393 Or cheap out and use cornstarch..
@@schattenmygirl Is that any cheaper than a big bottle of baby powder? I've had the same bottle on the shelf for almost two decades now, and have not run out.
Lawnmower tires are the worst. You made it look easy. Well done!!
also not a bad idea to inspect inner part of rim , especially if you're installing a tube for the 1st time on this rim . sometimes they have sharp welding splatter or even small pieces of welding wire protruding . i break mine down with a harbor freight changer for car tires , then use a large piece of all thread which i bolt thru a hole in my work bench (nut on both top and bottom , then another nut/washer to hold rim down) when i need it . if i changed many though , i'd buy a changer like donnyboy has .
Great advise Bill, I learned the hard way to always check the inside of the rim for splatters. It only takes a minute and will save a ton of frustration.
I run a rag inside tire to check for protruding objects. You can get a nasty puncture in your finger from a piece of wire or thorn.
Man, you sure made that look easy. You and Steve at the small engine saloon are my go to guys.
When inflating the tube, old practice was as shown to "bead up" the tire, then deflating again to allow the tube to release from the tire, and relax, before reinflating for a perfect, relaxed fit to wheel and tire...."Old school"
Great video. When I was young (I'm 70 now) I used to mount and dismount tires with tire spoons. That was usually my car tires.
Good to see another dawn man
My local tire shop wanted fifty dollars to change a tire because it was so hard to do. I did it myself with two tire tools from a 37 Ford and a screwdriver. I used a hydraulic jack between the tire and my truck frame to break the bead.
Great device and process Dony. I mount mine on a 5/8 eyebolt anchored in my 5" vise. Once I had a badly corroded rim that would not seal. Tubes are crazy money! I had recently sealed my driveway and had some sealer that I used liberally (Not Lieberal) around the tire and rim sealing area.
When the tire 'popped' into place it gave me a permanent tideline of sealer on 3 walls and tool board! And me. Lesson learned!
I don't know why but when I saw this title I immediatley thought, "pump your tires up!" Great vid Don
Great job Dony
Great work donyboy
Thanks for another great video! Very good detail and great camera work!
Good demonstration. Thanks Don.
I want one of those long wires you put on the valve stem. Works perfectly! Thanks for the video. I have one of those tire changers. I need to find all of the parts. Been a long time since I used it.
Another great how-to video!
Great video, as usual. Thanks ! Merci !
Thanks Don, great video, you make it look easy.
Super helpful...thanks Dony!!
You make it look easy !! 😄
Great Job !! 👍👍
Thanks for sharing. You made it look easy.
Awesome video! Thanks!
Excellent! Thank you.
Can't think of a better way to spend a Friday evening than watching a tube replacement video!
great segment. appreciate the share. love that little tire changer.
I love that harbor freight changer. Cost like 80$, and at 30$ each(what they said when I called) at a car tire place, it pays for itself with one tractors worth of tires...
30 bucks for one tire?!!! Man what a rip off.
@@zlatkovujevic7348 Ironically, they were called "Discount Tire". >..
@@MirroringTruth Jesus... :D
Good information. Thanks!
Brilliant. Will save for when I have to do this again, cos I always forget. Thanks, Dony.
Always great information and demonstration……..Thank you
That was a nice piece of work
Awesome video I like your remote control car in the back round 😎
Excellent thanks
Always educational and enjoyable watching. God bless you and your family
I've been working on cars since tires with tube were still common, foreign cars with wire wheels mostly. The rule was and still is never put an oversized tube in a tire, it would fold over on itself, overheat and then you would have a high speed blowout. Underside was OK, if it was not too small, it woud expand to fill the tire they are made to expand. At the speeds lawn mowers/tractors travel I don't see a danger either way. BTW, if you didn't lube that tire that last 1/4 turn could have destroyed the bead on that old dry tire. Kudos for a youtuber who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty.
Tube is way to go, although I’ve been using that slime stuff for a few year and not had any issues yet. It seems to fill the cracks and bead and it seals well.
I use the slime for that too, have it in my UTV off road tire that seeps through the bead and micro pin holes in the tread, works great. Thats with 1400lbs on it! Also used in on my trailer tires, they were flat for years and would hold air, now they do! Makes a mess when you change the tire later, but I have years of tread left before that haha
Fantastic!!! Thank you Sir for helping so many of us!!
Good video buddy thanks for sharing have a great weekend
good job. 👍
Amazing timing. I just searched your channel for this yesterday and was shocked not to see anything on flat repairs for tractors.
Chickanic did a tire video a few weeks or months ago -- time flies.
I will try to find that. Thanks.
Nice job.
I had to patch a tube one time and, without a tire tool like yours or any of the tools made for that, it was a HUGE PITA!!! Both getting the tube out and back in, but I got it done. I bought 4 new tires for that rider to install when I get the rest of it repaired and the store I bought them from will mount them for me. I don't need to do that kind of work often, but a tire tool like yours from Harbor Freight will be what I get to do it in the future. And your way of inserting the tube is much better than the way I did it, so THANKS for that! All kinds of time savers here!
I couldn't get the wheel dust caps back on, so I'll watch your "Lawn Tractor Wheel Dust Caps - Best Removal Method!" for that, too. I didn't think about heating them. For the time being, I covered where the caps go with black plastic folded over twice for 4 layers and strapped them closed to secure them. And I've been using anti-seize on everything now. I lube all zerk fittings, too. I've learned so much from you. THANK YOU, Don, for all you do for us! You're the man!
Thanks,very good tutorial. 👍
you are such a boss. you think of everything. people would be lucky to have you as their friend. Thank you for all you do. You encourage me with EVERY video
Actually enjoyed watching the video. Nice clear, steady presentation with the relevant tips. Thank you very much.
Excellent.
Well done Donyboy but at Eliminator Performance the best way we found to fix flat tires is take them to our local tire dealer Murdoch's Tire in Port Colborne simply because they charge us less for a tube than we can purchase them and they charge $10 labour to install the tube (all plus the 13% HST of course). We actually have the same mini tire changer from Princess Auto which we will likely sell to a flipper at some point. The aggravation involved especially on the smaller front tires really is not worth the effort and we found that while they are fixing our flat tires we can actually be doing repairs and making more money from the time not wasted on this operation. Another bonus is if they ruin a tube during the install it is on them and not us or our customer. As a service to our customers we do not inflate the cost on the customer invoice. Do love that tool you use for holding the valve stem though!
Very good video. Thanks.
Thanks!
Great job! merci
Great video. Thanks!!
Thanks Dony
Great video thank you
u r a good man charlie brown!! thank you
This was a first for me. Wonderful seeing how easy it was to change the tyre - when one has the skills and tools.
Very good job and video. Right to the point without a lot of useless jibber-jabber!
Great video. Thanks for the small details that you always include. That’s where mistakes can be made for me.
Great VJO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the update and the way you explain things thanks once again for the efforts and appreciation from🇩🇰
This video is like gold; thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice video!!
Good work. However I do something differently, before inflating I remove the valve in the tube and just inflate. This is because with the valve on the flow of air inside is slow and so the tube can some time donot take up the correct shape inside the tire. With the valve off air can fill up fast and the tube inflated evenly. This is especially important if you are using a Tube size one or two more than the Tire as shown in the video and this can cause some folds which will give a bumpy ride or premature failure. Once the tire pops and sticks to both rims we can install the tube wall and inflate to the correct pressure.
Also keep the tire on the Jig with the clamping bolt on till you finish the inflation, specially when you are working with the old tire showing some cracks. Also it would be advisable to use safety goggles.
Thanks.
I got one of those tire changers at Princess Auto a while back. I had some doubts, but it was on sale, can't remember how much I paid for it, but it was worth every penny.
Where did you find Oregon 20X10 tubes? Great tip on getting the rubber caps off. Thanks for the upload
this is awesome!
Thx Don, appreciated
In my younger days, long ago, I worked in a service station and we had the larger version tire changer. What a workout! Later on, the boss bought one that was air operated. I don't work on many tires now. But when I do- &%#$). Very good video Donny!
Beautiful job
fyi ...Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) inside the tire work absolutely wonderful for slow leaks. I have used it over 50 times, and it works 99% of the time.
ATF seals the tire on the inside?
@@whatthe2458 ATF is designed to treat and condition rubber seals in a transmission … I suspect it expands the rubber on the inside but “slow leaks” in mower tires are instantly fixed with ATF … I couldn’t believe it but it works time after time and imho better than fix a flat and way cheaper …
@@whatthe2458 yes .. especially slow leaks, expands the rubber.
How do you put ATF in the tire, what is your procedure?
@@mydogdidit remove valve stem, let air escape. add 1/2 cup or more for bigger tires of ATF using an old mustard bottle or squeeze type BBQ sauce bottle etc. The ATF helps swells and conditions the rubber, so the slow leak is fixed.
The rear tires are always much easier than the front skinny tires, they are a pain in the neck. Nice tutorial!
Installed tubes in a couple of 4” plastic snowblower wheels. I put the tire completely on the rim, the snuck the tube in. That way you don’t risk pinching tube when levering tire onto rim.
Good video and I'm sure others may have mentioned a definite benefit is to use a dusting of baby powder on the inside of the tire and the tube along with slightly inflating the tube to help prevent creases and Folds on the tube when inflating the rest of the way.
Nice little tire machine. I have my dads old Coats manual tire machine and micro precission balancer from his Texaco station from the 60's I still use it.
I have the same machine Dony and for the price it's hard to beat! I bought mine at Harbor Freight and I bought two tire spoons which make dismounting a breeze. Another great video to add to my collection...Thank you!
Great video. Be sure to wear eye protection when removing the snap ring. Those buggers can fly of with eye puncturing force
Thanks..hope you got the rain need there😊
I've had the changer for years. A pair of small needle nose Vise Grips are also very helpful when trying to put the tire back on in addition to using them to hold the stem earlier. You can clamp them on the rim to hold the tire in place as you work your way around with the tool. Some of my larger tires run at 4-6 psi and with those you need to push the stem sideways with your finger before putting a hose on them to keep from pushing the stem inside as you inflate.
Now, show me doing this with a 4" rim (old Snapper fronts). I've concluded that it's less trouble to just replace the wheel tire assembly than to try to deal with a 4".
What is a good front and rear air pressure for an average small lawn tractor?
This guy is still the best…🖖🏻
Man oh man I struggle with John Deere wheels not coming off (rust). Thanks again Don.
grouse repair job well done Donny mate cheers from Australia 🐨🐑🦘🌴🇦🇺 or the land down under to your area in Canada 🇨🇦🍁 and yep here in our country they are common problem on the older Rover and Victa Ride on Mowers too but yeah an easy fix very similar to this video too.
I used to do this with my old Pontiac Ventura. The rims were too rusted to hold the bead so I’d slip a tube into the tire. I’d break the bead loose by jacking up my truck and setting it down on the tire to push the bead off. I reinflated the tire with a cheap foot pump. It worked, saved me a little money at the time.
Merci!
Thank you for your support!
I've used old latex paint on the inside of lawn tractor tires to make them hold air. I didn't want to use a tube because I filled the tires with anti freeze for weight.
Here is a Tip for You..........I always use a rag inside the tire, just incase there is a Nail or something that will cut your Hans. The rag will catch it and not cut your hand.
I don't like to leave that soapy water inside the tire. It rusts the rims since the water can't escape. I dry it out and use something like Crisco shortening.
i like the slash in the background. i race one. a lot of fun
as a teen I used 2 or 3 screwdrivers in my 30s I got tire spoons , age 50 I got a manual tire machine , Look back over the years and think of the time i could of saved .
Another excellent maintenance video. One caution is never inflate a loose tire. Mount it on the tractor, tire changer, place inside a cage or for larger tires, safety chain to solid object. I know people that air the tube or tubeless tires for years without issues, also observed people dead from the impact of low pressure tractor tires. Please continue with the videos...
It’d be neat if they made that stem tool so you could inflate through it.
I don't have a lot of workspace but I think I might need to make room for that tool. I've been fixing my small tires using my tractor's bucket for an adjustable solid worktable. That tool should bolt on somehow.
Thanks for the video Dony boss would you please help me i have a Honda Tractor tire take size 20x7.00x12 I have a hard time find one what you suggested the size will fi t my tire Thanks .
you have to clean the inside of rim file all the weld bumps then paint the inside of rim
What about using that green slime tire fix? do you recommend that? Thx
Doneyboy what about a video showing how to do tyre job without a tyre machine, not many of us have one to go to, keep up the good work and vids they are really useful, Somerset Mike.
got the same tire changer from harbor freight a month ago, works great but the aluminum handle for the bead breaker was so rough that i took a rasp and scotch pad to it
Where did you get the tool that you screwed onto the stem?
I had to install a tube in my 8-26 snow blower and Princess Auto had the correct size tube. I used my knees to break the bead and screwdrivers to install the tire over the rim. I used a long screwdriver and jammed it into the ground to hold the tire in place so I could rotate it easily.
where can i get the tool that screws on the valve stem
100% Dony , a tube works whereas tyre goop makes dealing with the tyre later a bigger problem . A tube probably doesn't even cost much more than a can of that horrible goop . I like the tyre changer , would have saved me some grief , sweat and frustration in the past 🙂
I typically just use plugs on my lawn/garden equipment when needed. That goop is a mess in non-tubed tires. I tried changing a tire on a front wheel of a lawn tractor once....finally gave up and took it to the tire shop to have it remounted LOL...even the guy at the tire shop had a heck of a time getting remounted, their tire machines don't do tires/wheels that small, I think he said the smallest it will go is a 13 inch wheel.
tyre?...
@@dyer2cycle There are a number of differences between U.S. spelling and British which is what we in Australia mainly use . tyre/tire , favour / favor , centre / center and many more . Another example is we use metre as a unit of distance and meter as a measuring instrument e.g. volt meter whereas Americans use meter in both cases . Ain't language grand ? 🙂
@@Gordon_L Ah, I see..I wasn't aware of that one, but I am very familiar with the favor/favour, labor/labour thing..I remember being taught that in 2nd/3rd grade in school...and my teacher taught us that either spelling was correct. To this day, I sometimes spell labor "labour", even if it isn't strictly American English...☺
Americans and Australians and Brits are a people divided by a common language.
