Personally, I would just go buy tubes tor the tires--If the tires are pretty old, then it would definitely be worth your time as they could have lots of small "seeps" anywhere on the tire. As far as using starting fluid, yes I have seen a few people do that, never tried it myself, car tires were enough of an explosion. Quite a few years back some guy at a big used and new tire dealer in Central Iowa was using ether just to dry the inside of a tractor tire out that had been sitting outside and it exploded good enough that it started a fire and the whole lot that the dealer sat on was burned down. That's what I heard and I don't know the whole story, but remember seeing it on the news on TV. I guess I would have to recommend against it. The come-along idea is probably the best idea or use a big nylon strap like is used to tie down loads on a semi trailer. Still, that can get pretty frustrating, shop around for a good price on a tube, you'll save alot of aggravation that way.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
