Thought about that. But we don't normally go that direction. Is 40 minute drive each way, plus having to deal with him (this guy wasn't the most pleasant guy in the world! *lol*). It's just $20. No, we're not rich, but I'd say it's a cheap lesson learned.
The worst thing he did was to slobber so much lubricant everywhere. That's gonna be a headache to clean up. ...Keep in mind, this guy is used to working on BIG tires -- for tractors and combines. My little pipsqueak tires almost wouldn't fit on his tire machine! :shock:
Oh, and he did air it up. Don't know what he went to initially, but he let the air out to 50psi. The other tire is still at 50psi on the nose, so that $20 is money well spent. The other $20....I'm just gonna eat it this time, and never use their tire services again! I'll show them. They just lost one whole customer! *ROFL* :roll:
I have concerns about the X-tra Seal bonding with all that tire lubricant. I need to figure out what to clean it with. Not sure if it's petroleum jelly or what, but he grabs the stuff by big handfuls. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the problem, that all the excessive lubricant helped the bead to come loose. But I don't know for sure.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
