But only in this in the interest of completeness I had a Black& Decker weed wacker that I had for like 15 years the batteries didn't work and in less than 2 hours I bought a Craftsman with a battery and that thing is pretty amazing it took 2 hours because when I went to use the mobile app at the...

I did recommend a sealant on the big A and that's what I used and if the only thing I had to fix was a flat tire I would have probably reset it on the rim and see if there was some sort of issue after making sure the rim was cool and then if all else failed just get a new tire like 30 bucks 40...

Michael I'm not going to recommend you what to do I'm going to recommend you what not to do and that has to do with that slime product it's completely useless. Having said that it might have other applications where it works really great but not in the case of the riding mower from what I can...

I hear you on this so imagine I have an LT2000 Sears Craftsman and on the lowest setting the clearance isn't like 1 in or 0 in it's like -5 in like this is crazy and that's why when I try and raise it up to the highest setting it's like I'm already out we're down 5 in of vertical height. Jim

Startech thanks for the tip low pressure gauge this one goes up to like I don't know 60 lb who knows but maybe I'll take a look and find something that goes as high as maybe 20 psi I'm just guessing cuz the spec for these tires is I think 14 psi. Thanks, Jim

Okay as I'm reading this when you say put a washer in to me that means the deck's even going to be lower obviously I'm not getting something on this but I will reread it but like I said when I came across the problem last summer everything I read was oh just put more air in your tires and I...

Okay tiger I got you on that thanks for replying but I do recall getting on the ground and looking at that whole setup and everything was jammed up near the frame going up say towards the seat. Jim

Okay I'll take your advice on those hanger things I really think they're maxed out if you know what I mean but as far as fixing a tire I figured what do I got to lose so I fill it with sealant and either it works or it doesn't but I haven't said that I really want to get the mower deck higher...

Yeah but I wasn't really testing the valve stem and I'm wondering about what you're saying regarding the gauges cuz it's a real pia to use that gauge I would prefer one where you can just press down on the valve stem without some sort of angle feature built into the tire pressure gauge itself I...

I told you I couldn't get a reading which was true what I failed to say is I actually got the video of me letting air out of the tire so there's nothing wrong with the valve stem being clogged

Okay start tech it has to warm up a bit I'll check it again if we get temperatures near 40° f soon I didn't spend a lot of time trying to get a reading on the other tire like maybe 5 seconds and trying to avoid getting my knees on the ground cuz I might not be able to get back up. Jim

So it took a while I don't know why to get a reading on the rear right tire but it's about 10 lb PSI the rear left tire seems to be inflated even more I couldn't even get a reading on that again I don't know why that is the case but the one I got the 10 PSI on I'm pretty sure it was the one that...

Every time I see more replies to this it motivates me more to get outside to make a movie like not photoshopped kind of movie just a movie of what the tire pressure is on both tires in the rear and then post it to YouTube cuz I like to know myself I see people all the time filling their car...

Okay the product I bought is called road instant fix it's not Fix-A-Flat I don't know what the difference is and time will tell on that but as far as I know it's not the same product it's probably as different as slime I didn't look into the ingredients on any of them I just used it and it...

Does it hold air or not in the future. I will see on that also if it warms up today I definitely want to get a PSI on that tire or both in the rear

I got you but for me I used that fix flat stuff whatever maybe about 5 months ago and I'll see how it does for me as far as what you're referring to and just overall does the tire hold there or not. Jim

Grumpy cat forgive me if you did not discuss the possibility of rust if it wasn't you then it was someone else but I thought about that too I can tell you in this house there's cast iron and after 70 years the rust went right through the cast iron so it created a small hole but if rush develops...

You are correct I used the slime product and that did not work and then I used that other product called road instant fixes flat tire. And I thought about this after I made my original post and I was wondering if the slime product although it did not work acted as a primer in some way and...

I'm not sure if you're still having a problem but I have a lt2000 the rear tire kept going flat and like little engine mentioned I tried that slime stuff and that did not work but what I did find that works and is still working because it's still holding air is a product called road instant flat...
