I have been having a front tire on a zero turn mower that repeatedly goes flat over a week or so. I took It to the local repair guy, and he couldn’t find any leaks.
I got tired of it, and I put the whole inflated tired and wheel under water and watched it.
Tiny bubbles came out of the axle hole area in the wheel. I watched it for awhile to make sure the air wasn’t just captured, but they never stopped.
To me, either from rust or damage, the air inside has found a way to escape via the wheel but not from the tire itself?
It is probably best to replace the wheel? But…of course, it is always good to hear from others.
So what do you think? Any advice?
