The valve stem on one of my rear tires has assumed a really awkward position: pointing at the rim so tightly that I can't even get the cap off, let alone check the pressure or add air. The tractor is a Kubota bx25d with industrial tires. A couple of years ago, I ran over a stray piece of pointy steel scrap. The local Les Schwab (a trustworthy NW regional tire chain) sent out their farm service truck, and ended up putting a tube in, then refilling with rimguard (beet juice).
Since then, at some unknown point, something slipped. I'd like to get this fixed, rather than wait for the valve stem to break off, or pressure to get really low. I could remove the tire and take it down to the shop.
Any suggestions on how it should be fixed?
