Tires Question about liquid in rears

[Earl Ohl]

I got a used Kubota L3130 with R4s a couple of weeks ago. I just got around to checking tire pressure. I knew the rears were liquid filled, but I get liquid when I press the valves at their highest point. I've tapped the rires and it seems the liquid stops several inches from the top (as it should). Could it be the air pressure is so low that liquid comes out when the valves are pressed at top dead center?

Try connecting up the air hose & putting a short blast of compressed air in first (with the tire valve at 12 noon) before checking pressure. This will clear the tire valve of any "trapped" fluid. Been doing this for years & never bought a "liquid" gauge.

jack the rear of your tractorup in the air take the weight off them and put valve stem to 12 and check the air about 10 to 15 lbs, per tire with the calisum in the tire you will get a little liquid not much
