I noticed the left rear tire had a slight wrinkle at the bottom after mowing yesterday. I went to check the pressure and a steady stream of fluid came out as soon as I took off the cap. I already had the valve stem at the top, as I knew the tires were filled with some sort of fluid. I tried to tighten the internals of the valve stem, and that helped for about 3 seconds. I'm going to jack up that corner of the tractor, with the valve stem at the top, and replace the valve stem internals.
Will any valve stem from the auto parts store work, or does it take something special? I'm not sure what type of fluid is in the tires. What came out was clear. The only smell was the old stagnant tire air smell. This is on a Ford/NH 3230 with Goodyear Dynatorque II 12.4-28's.
