Review on FlatOut 99907 Wheelbarrows Woodchippers Fluid_Ounces by Jack Ngo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fixed my lawn mower - and I'm still in shock!

My lawnmower had a very small puncture near the sidewall of the rear tire. I came across this product. and I'm so glad I did. However, I'll give you some tips that some other reviewers mention and others don't. 1) Deflate the tire completely. 2) Pull the hose over the bottle. 3) Make sure the valve is in the highest position. Point on the tire4) Slide the tube onto the valve. IMPORTANT. Before step 4, unscrew the black top of the tubing from the bottle. Use this to remove the part inside the tire valve before proceeding. The bottle itself mentions this vaguely, but I completely skipped and missed it. You must of course do this. 5) Once the hose is over the valve and the inside of the valve has been removed, squeeze out the contents of the bottle (amount will depend on your use. My lawn mower tire was offered the entire bottle I made). So this is where it gets interesting. After step 5, reinstall the inside of the tire valve and inflate the tire. Filled with air, the bottle reports that the escaping air draws the contents of the bottle to this hole and seals it. While this seemed to be happening, at the direction of a few other reviewers, I took it a step further. so that the contents of the bottle can be distributed. Since my patch was near the side panel, I was very concerned it would be difficult to patch that way. I have the luxury of having a slight slope in my garden. So I just parked it over the line and let gravity do its job. Left it on for about 30 minutes. Drove it back to the barn and left it. Checked the next night and the next night and indeed, it's completely fixed. I checked the tire pressure and got it where it should be and it's like new. For the price, this product is the undeniable choice you should make. It worked and I will definitely use it again if I ever have an accident with another apartment.
