Finding small air leak in front tire

   / Finding small air leak in front tire #11  
Slime is hit and miss for me.

If the thorn stays in the slime will work but when the tire looks like a porcupine, thorns fall out fairly regularly and then i get flat.

I don't slime my tractor tires.... just mower and golf cart tires....so far no tractor flats, I have removed all the Honey Locus and majority of the Mesquite trees so flats are getting more rare nowadays.

Just a follow-up, the slime works. Checked the air pressure in the tires today and the pressure was correct. Two months, over 50 hours, and no flat tires. Thanks to all for the slime advise! Easy fix and what a savings over having the tires foam filled. :D

I just had a flat fixed the other day on my TC18, $21. I don't think that is to bad for patching a tube and refilling with fluid.

I've used Slime before and have never had good luck with it.

I had a slow leak on one of my fronts that I never could pinpoint. I opted for a tube.

Fix a Flat is junk. Most decent tire places won't even tough a tire with that junk in it.
