Tires Loaded tires question.

I think that the problem is that you guys are using the biodegradable dye. My dealer told me that they installed the newer permanent dye for me so I'll never have to add any when I change the air.

Of course, he told me later that it caused a lot of problems for them when I got the FEL installed and they watered the tires. It turns out that the dye wasn't compatible with the brand of water that they use...

My dealer told me that the biodegradable dyes can spontaniously combust if mixed with hardwater. So check your PH before mixing and always remember, safety first, Nomex is your friend (this has nothing to do with NAFTA or the border patrol)

I'm suprised of all the talk about air and dye... I was thinking of draining the antifreeze and just installing deisel fuel (winter mix of course) then I can just connect a line from the tire to the tank when I'm out in the field and my fuel gage is reading extremely low /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

I tried that once. I could no longer smoke the tires without catching them on fire.

Now THERE'S an idea! Let's see? We need something liquid that won't freeze....................... And if you get a flat tire, just start catching it in a shot glass /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
