Sealing tubeless tyres

[Pluto]

Well, got there eventually! A mechanic friend came around and after half an hour of cussing, said “bring the bloody thing down to my workshop “.
Even then we struggled for about an hour before it finally clicked into position.

He had a compressor with a much bigger capacity than mine, and after a lot of fiddling with a large diameter airline success was achieved.
We had a little play with some Easy Start, but all we discovered was that yes, it’s very flammable, along with tyre lubricant!!

Just the other side one to do now!!!
If you do now someone with a road compressor (most umbilical contractors will have one for blowing slurry out the pipes) they seat them in seconds with the large air flow

All that faffing about would it not of been quicker and safer just to ring a tyre fitter [emoji849]

Probably, but I do get a morbid sense of satisfaction from fitting tyres!
And I haven’t spent the last 3 days on the job, it’s just a case of when you get 5 minutes do a bit more. As a general rule they are quite easy, and you can get some good deals if you fit them yourself ?
