In Reply to: Info on removing fluid from tires. posted by Paul Stanley on August 28, 1999 at 11:22:36:

Paul,
I'll probably get raked over the coals for this but when my tire got punctured, I didn't have much choice. It drained itself right there in the field where it was parked. I hope it killed some of the poison ivy but that is another story. After I got the wheel and tire apart, I took them to the house and hosed them off. It seems that calcium chloride rinses off easily. The tube had an adapter fitting that you could take the entire valve core assy out of and would be larger to allow the easier introduction of the water mixture solution. After I drained all of the fluid out of the tube that I could get out, I filled it with plain water and let that drain out. The next day, I patched the puncture and put everything back together withour water.

Another way to remove the water is to drive the tractor to a place where the solution won't cause a problem and park it with the valve stem at the bottom and take out the valve core. After the tire is flat, fill it back up with air from an air tank if you are too far from your compressor and let it drain again. This will empty most of the water. When you have done this, you can simply buy new tubes and install them or take everything apart and rinse as I mentioned before.

Whatever you do, don't just jack up your tractor and pull the lug nuts off and try and handle the wheel when it is full. If it falls over, you won't even begin to lift it up again. Even empty, it was almost more than this old guy could handle.
Good luck,
Ivan

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c ...
